It's a wonderful night to die. The sky is stark from the lights around, And below my feet are traffic sounds, Wherein I hear a stricken cry. It is a wonderful dawn to die. The sunrise gives my gray surrounds A color like the shedding's of hounds. But my cowardice cannot let me fly. It is a wonderful day to die. All about, feelings of love abound, Excepting me. I am alone as if in the ground. But I do not want to die. It is a horrible dusk to die. The sun sets slowly, beneath the hallowed ground. Within my mind, I behold the eternal town. Safe in bed, I sleep alone. It matters not to me tonight.
