My body's giving signs
That it might like to stop
That's a crying shame
Don't feel fit to drop
Starting to feel pain
A wasted life's excess
Try so hard to win
Without much success
Should I just give up
Let the sirens sing
Prepare for longest sleep
Fly with angels wing
My box of secrets locked
And safely put away
For to give to you
To be opened someday
It seems that time has stole
The race I thought I'd won
I will gaze upon
The final setting sun

If
If my eyes no longer see. Beauty that's in front of me. If my legs no longer run. Shoot me with the starter's gun. If it becomes too hard to breathe. And my chest starts not to heave.

When The End Is Nigh
When I'm lain motionless. And the darkness is near. Will family surround me. Will anybody be there. Will my deathbed be a single. In a one bedroom home. Will I go with a whimper. In a cold room alone.

Silence.
A peal of laughter. Pierces the air, Shattering the silence, Without a care. Silence is golden Hanging above, As quiet as a mouse, As peaceful as a dove.
