I can only remember some of the lyrics. Here's what I've got so far. It was a guy singing and I heard it during a sad part of a tv show where a woman died. Kind of an emotional song, I think.

That was never easy, but you always said it would be
Then you took him aside and tore strips off his back (I think!)
And now we survive, somehow you and me survive
And when they ask me, I'll cover you
I'll tell them nothing really happened here

Thanks so much for any help!
