Less Depressing Thoughts on Death

If I had a fear of flying,
through the sky above the sea,
if I had a fear of dying,
where would my living be?

If I hid beneath the covers,
closed my eyes so tight,
if I hid behind the others,
never fought my fight.

Don't be scared of dying,
it's a scene we have to face,
when she comes, don't be crying,
look her in the face.

Hold you head up high and proud,
treat her as a friend,
no regrets, shout it loud
Your life can never end.

If I wasted my life away,
being scared and playing safe,
life is over, nothing left,
no joy, no love, no faith.
