The only thing I've ever known is you here

the only thing I ever fear is not having you near

I'm afraid of death

I'm afraid of losing my last breath

what happens when I fall asleep

what happens when the grim reaper comes to peep

because I don't like the thought of never waking up

because it's all over and my cup has been filled, ready to erupt

it's over, this brave undertaking called life

it's over and it was filled with strife

but I still want to dwell here

but I still want to see the shining sun and sky so clear

where the bird's chirp and the bees buzz

where the old house I loved was

I know death is inevitable

I know living forever just isn't inheritable

One day I won't be scared

One day I'll  face it arms wide and heartfully prepared

here I come death

I'll be ready soon enough
