here i am the remains of me
my eyes tired but i can't sleep
the weakness sows it's seed
god i ask you for your meaning of this
can't you see what has become of my
can't you see the tears i cry in horror
as last my eyes are closed and i am breathing slowly
hoping again that this is the end
and i am on my way to embrace the holy
what have you found in me
in my dreams i try to hide away
but there is no shelter to find
and i try to reach to the light of the day
i rage against the dying of the light
god was i wish that i was all alone
oh god all the ones that i learned to know
think about those who i leave in sorrow
it is not fair why do i have to go
what have you found in me
we all have to die eventually
but of course i didn't want to die
i wasn't old or infirm or in bad health
but most of all i didn't want to leave
my darling wife and my young son
who now has no father to look after him
and that is my greatest regret
