I will die...when the time is right,
And not prematurely or before;
I will not give up my precious soul,
To go through that unknown door.
I will fight to stay the course...
to navigate that twisted path;
I won't give in to loser's dreams,
or give in to the world's great wrath.
I will sail on, up that river...
going gently with the flow;
and I'll not harbor lightly,
to see the last and final show.
I'll spread as much love as I can,
and touch and hug, all that I can reach;
I'll see the sunshine, not the darkness,
When I am rested on that blessed beach.
I will die...when the time is right,
Not a moment sooner will I fall;
But I'll fight the dying of the light,
Until I am aware of nothing else at all.
And not prematurely or before;
I will not give up my precious soul,
To go through that unknown door.
I will fight to stay the course...
to navigate that twisted path;
I won't give in to loser's dreams,
or give in to the world's great wrath.
I will sail on, up that river...
going gently with the flow;
and I'll not harbor lightly,
to see the last and final show.
I'll spread as much love as I can,
and touch and hug, all that I can reach;
I'll see the sunshine, not the darkness,
When I am rested on that blessed beach.
I will die...when the time is right,
Not a moment sooner will I fall;
But I'll fight the dying of the light,
Until I am aware of nothing else at all.
