what will it feel like when I die
what will it be like if I drown
will it be fast
or will I toss and turn
and writhe
in pain
in torment

will I be afraid
will I be afraid, as I am now

who am I if I am not afraid
who am I if I am not alone

will it be swift
will there be a light
bright and blinding
waiting for me at the end

or will I be greeted by darkness

will it feel as though I am falling
forever and ever
an endless free fall

will I wish for it to be over
scream for it to end

will the gods offer me mercy
do the gods care at all

will they turn a blind eye
do they have eyes at all

what will it feel like when I die
will I fall, from the highest floor
as I promised myself before

will I be young
will I be young

what will it feel like when I die
what will it be like if I drown
how much will my lungs burn
how much will I want to survive

what will it feel like when I die
please tell me,
will I be young
