Song: Last Request

Withered me, leathered me,
grizzled beard on weathered me;
walk me out to any cliff,
let the wind put an end to me.

Blackball me, lever me,
pry me up and sever me;
make me shut my mouth for good,
turn me into history.

I can’t do this by myself,
I can’t make me disappear.
I can only do it with your help,
Hold my hand and help dispel the fear;

Obese me, obscene me,
Rattle brained depressing me;
Put me on a chariot,
Let the angels carry me.

For too long I’ve been trying hard
To take that last walk on my own.
I’ve been killing off my heart,
I’m no good at it when I’m all alone;

So comfort me, comfort me,
I’ll nullify your faith in me;
Watch me walk away from this
and you can keep the best of me.
