When the one thing you want more than life itself is death...
Death
-- Sweet death
Why must I wait?
I long for the day you come for me
When we shall be together

I yearn to be with you
I want you more than life itself
I want you to save me from this
To save me--

But I remain--
here--
And I go on
day
after day
after day
and I wish you would come

Won't you come?
Death, take me away
Take me in your arms
I won't fight
Just take me away from this life--
away--
