The Day I Die
Blackened skies
Bloodshot eyes
We are all in mourning
On the day I die.
The end of the young life
That never really began.
The end of my body
As my ashes join the sand.
My words could no longer make it safe
They could no longer make a change.
To me that was much worse
Much more deranged.
With my specter released
I watch everyone else
As they mourn for me, the deceased
The day I die
Is one for the ages
As emotions that were built up
Are released from their cages.
To become one with the dead...
No one truly wants that
To figure out my last words said
They want no lies, all facts
The day I die
Is a sad day indeed
But everyone to know my words
and heed this creed
Beware of life
And the pain it brings
Take all that emotion
release it and sing
Sing that song
Until you have nothing left
Sing that song
So you celebrate life
And mourn not the dead.
Bloodshot eyes
We are all in mourning
On the day I die.
The end of the young life
That never really began.
The end of my body
As my ashes join the sand.
My words could no longer make it safe
They could no longer make a change.
To me that was much worse
Much more deranged.
With my specter released
I watch everyone else
As they mourn for me, the deceased
The day I die
Is one for the ages
As emotions that were built up
Are released from their cages.
To become one with the dead...
No one truly wants that
To figure out my last words said
They want no lies, all facts
The day I die
Is a sad day indeed
But everyone to know my words
and heed this creed
Beware of life
And the pain it brings
Take all that emotion
release it and sing
Sing that song
Until you have nothing left
Sing that song
So you celebrate life
And mourn not the dead.
