Oh Dear God
If you do exist
You must listen to this
You must honor my only wish
Save me from this curse
Of life and its myths
Save me from the time
And it’s screaming voice
Muffled by the morning dust
Give me death!
Oh Dear God
But save me from the pain
That occurs in the midst
Save me from the breathlessness
All that I ask from you, Oh Dear God
Is to give me some numbness
Till I am safe within her arms
Till I feel her soft embrace
Don’t you ever let her down
Death, My mother is full of grace
