Don't cry at my Funeral
Don't cry at my funeral
Don't cry
Dry your eye
Baby when I die
For that's when
I learn to fly
Don't mourn my passing
From this Earthly plane
I'm happy to be free
Of these chains
Don't cry at my funeral
Baby be strong
I don't blame you if you do
It isn't wrong
To laugh or cry
Just remember
I did not die
In vain
I'm free from this pain
I'm free once again
Life is too short
To argue and fight
Don't cry baby
Not tonight
I die a little Day by day
Longing for our time
But if fate dictates otherwise
I don't want to hear your cries
Don't cry at my funeral baby
It's put on hold
I felt like dying today with my brother
But I am not that bold
You said last night on Skype
That I was strong
And baby you are
Not wrong
As bedlam ensued
Earlier on
I just stayed calm
No screams
No drama
No making a scene
As he my brother
Would have wanted me
To remain cool
I'm no longer joking
Or playing the fool
When I say
Don't cry
Because I did not die.
Dedicated to Zied.
