AFRAID TO DIE

I AM AFRAID TO DIE

Am I selfish because I cry

I've had a good life

Wasn't full of Strife

But what have I done

I'll be remembered by none

In a hundred years

No one will remember my tears

There should be a sense of relief

To leave this world of pain and grief

When I do die, just tell my friends good bye

Don't put me in an hole, or burn my hide

That's all that I ask, except send me off

with bagpipes, and AVE MARIA don't scoff

I maybe afraid to die, but send me off with pride.
