They say that you die twice
Once when you breathe your last
and again when your name
is spoken no more
I'm not afraid of breathing my last
to feel life slip from my body
I'll meet that head on and pass into beyond
whatever awaits afterwards
The death that scares me
is the second fatality
when memories linger no more
nobody remembers, nobody cares
slowly slip away
out of sight
out of mind
like I never existed at all
