Now I’m dead

Tell them I made my own bed

And I’m sleeping in it forever

Tell them about my head

And how it only used to make things harder

Now I’m dead

Tell them about my heart

And how it forgot to play its part

Now I’m dead

Tell them I don’t know

If Heaven is much crowded

Tell them the sorrow

Made my eyes see red

Now I’m dead

Tell them no one

Should ever take the blame

Tell them how my soul

Used to dance before it was claimed

Now I’m dead

Tell them how much I’ve gazed

Into the Reaper’s empty eyes

Tell them the end of the maze

Is where true peace lies

Now I’m dead

Tell them I’m sorry

For cheating and lying

Tell them I was happy

Everytime I saw them laughing

Now I’m dead

Tell my kids I’ll miss them

Wherever it is I am going

Tell their mother, my lover

I never knew about the ending

Now I’m dead

Tell my son I know

He’ll kill the sorrow

It’ll be hard and slow

But tell him I know

He’ll kill the sorrow

Tell him to never let go

Tell him to let love grow

Now I’m dead

Tell him to write

The words I never said
