If I die before I wake,
I pray to god my soul to take.
I take to the sky, tears in my eyes,
I look down below, all I see is Shadows.

I sit high above the clouds,
Looking down to people running around.
Wishing to be down below,
Loving someone again but now that's in the shadows.

I sit here wishing apon a wishing star,
Looking into a midnight moon light.
Hoping my family will be alright,
Knowing I'm up above for life.

Taken away at so young of age,
Away from people who love me for all days.
Moved away to a higher place,
Wishing this war was not of hate.

People laying down below,
Dead now, dead years ago.
Waiting for that light to come,
Take them higher above.

If I die before I wake,
I pray the lord my soul to take.
Make the world a better place,
No more sorrow, no more hate.

War no more, make the sun shine like never before,
People dieing everyday,
I pray to god there souls to take,
Make them have no more pain.

Have them live like summer rain,
Dancing peacefully through the clouds.
Sun shining above there brows,
Living life like never before.

Loving heart and nothing more,
Rainbow and butterfly galore.
Spreading there broken wings,learn to fly,
High above the sky.
