Leave me to rot, leave me to die

Leave me to float back up in the sky

Leave me to continue to wonder why

But I guess only time will tell.

Leave me to sink, leave me to drown

Leave me to be buried under the ground

Leave my corpse to grow wrinkly and brown

Where I fail to shout and yell.

Leave me to melt, leave me to burn

Leave my ashes to lie in the urn

Leave Death to collect me for my turn

Where wings won't grow from a bell.

Leave me to stop, leave me to choke

Leave me and my heart left broke

Leave me to be laughed at like a big joke

While my soul resides in Hell.

Leave me to hurt, leave me in pain

Leave me to lie outside in the rain

Leave me to be attached to a chain

Like being locked in a cell.

Leave me to scream, leave me to cry

Leave me to have to say a goodbye

Leave me to question even the smallest lie

And my body will be a shell.

Leave me to rot, leave me to die

I will eventually float up in the sky

And I will no longer need to know why

For I know my fears won't quell.
