As i lay.

As i lay in this hospital bed.

Thoughts of dying all in my head.

 

A legacy i will leave.

All the people i have freed.

 

Do not miss me when i am gone.

Do not dare to sing sad song.

 

I am where i belong.

Celebrate me and my life.

 

Live without fear and no strife.

Please tell my wife all the good i have done.

 

I feel myself coming undone.

What a web i have spun.

 

I feel everything.

No more numb.

 

I have the world under my thumb.

To death i will not succumb.

 

Death is but an old friend.

A new journey i will begin.

 

Come on baby lets go.

It is time to start the show.

 

The curtain closed on this chapter.

Now comes happily ever after.

 

As i lay in this bed.

I think of all the things left unsaid.

 

Death is not my foe.

There will be no tag on this toe.

 

Tell my wife i love her so.

Together forever i bestow.
