If I'm gunna go, I want it to be in fireworks, That sparkle, crackle and glow, Every colour should be present, A display worth millions, Power at one hundred percent!
If I'm gunna go, It'll be in a red hot lava flow, No more skin, left as bones, Burning bright in hot magma, Too swift, no time for groans.
If I'm gunna go... Take me some where high, An aeroplane, or balloon, So I can jump out into the sky, My last wish to grow wings, So I can die, having been able to fly.
But if I'm really gunna go, I think I'd just want your hand, Just firmly clasped in mine, Just holding me to this land, It's all I really need, you see, At the end, it is you, The one to set me free.
[inspired by my mum saying she'd like to be cremated in a volcano!]
