Death is not to sorrow, Those that depart are just moving to the Other Side, A better place, a beautiful one too,


Death What Bliss



When I'm dead what would I do
I will fly with the birds, and talk to the flowers
Play with the clouds, sing with the angels
I would sit on a mountain, so I could look down below
Just to see you go by

When I'm dead, what can't I do
I will meet old friends and family
I may bump into lovers, of many long years
Now that would be fun
So I like to be dead, just to be crazy as a horse

I could jump in the air, not let those kites fly
Pull them down, when I know it's not good
But wouldn't it be fun to tease the kids
Well they teased me when I was alive
So when I'm dead, this is what I'll do

I may stop at your gate, so your car will not move
How would you feel, to be held by a ghost
I'll wash up your clothes, brush up you shoes
Open your doors let the sun in
I may clean up your place, do up your dishes
Now how would it be to see the look on your face
To know someone's in but you cannot say whom

Oh to be dead, what fun it will bring
I could lie by your side, and you wouldn't know
I could touch you and hold you
Then that you may feel
Would you know it's me I wonder now
So I want to be dead, then I can find out

Just listen to this
I could fly and you could not
What bliss it would be
To do some things that you cannot
I would scream at you from over your rooftop
Shower you with flowers but that is if you been good
Bring luck to your door and wipe out all evil
Lingering around you I'll keep them away
Where no one can harm you wouldn't that be great
But only if I'm dead

I would kick all those with evil filled
Minds with venom I'll chase away.
Hearts of hate thoughts of jealousy
I would kick them so hard, they never come back
I want to be dead so I could do just that
Justice I'll bring to everyone around
But only if I'm dead, so let me be dead

Then if were dead you'll never fall sick
Even though you do I'll be there for you
I'll take good care, I would be by your side
To gaze in your eyes and to hold on your hand
But only if I'm dead, so let me be dead

But when I'm dead, I'll not really be dead
I'll be around like a star I'll shine
I'll love you my friends my family too
It would not be too much for me
I'll be around and fight I will
My love for you all will never fail
Even if I'm dead, I'll love you all

So let me be dead and when I'm dead
Do not grieve, because I'm not dead
I will live again, to love you all
I will live again
Do not weep no candles I want
No wreaths to be brought
Just sing along
Because I'm not dead, and I'll be watching you all

So let me be dead, but remember my smile
Remember my strength, my wit my will to go on
Remember the days, where laughter I brought
Remember me for what I am ,what I was

So now lay me down in bright crimson robes
Rainbow colours around me light
Songs of Joy gather and sing
For I may be that rainbow, and shine thru your door
For I may be that magpie on your window I'll sing
But only if I'm dead so let me be dead

I must leave you now
To dance awhile, before I'm dead
A while to dance my soul to free
I'll dance in your garden, like fairy in the night
Under the twilight, I ll dance on my toes
But only when I'm dead

When I'm dead what can't I do
So let me go let me be dead
Let me be free let my spirit soar free
Oh but that peace, that tranquility
Only, Only when I'm dead
What Bliss
