Goodbye cruel world You were never kind to me I leave you with my soul And this voice that rang out Whispering you prayers from a dream
But where do we go when we die? Where will I be? In a nightmare or a dream? Perhaps my soul will leave me Once I hang upon that tree And drift with the wind And the birds and the clouds
Perhaps my soul will become the wind That sails ships to new horizons Perhaps it will blow a love letter From a secret admirer To the object of their desires
Or perhaps my soul Will be the wind That ruffles your hair On a cold winter day Or the wind that you feel As you zip down a hill on a bike Propelling you forward with the force of an army
Which is why you must not cry my dear When I hang myself upon that tree For I've been dead a long time My body merely a vessel that I must leave And my soul the passengers that go to new places For death is not the end
