The I Want to Die Song (A Shanty)

[alexit]

I want to die.
l want to die.
Believe what I'm saying
Ain't a fucking lie.
Goodbye. Goodbye.
See you on the other side.
Do me one last favor
Throw me a couple of beers.
In the end, I'll raise my glass,
Nod and just say, "Cheers!"
Despite my very best
I always seem to fail.
Let's face it, you and I,
It's best that I just bail.
Goodbye. Goodbye.
See you on the other side.
Life's never really impressed me.
It sucks every single day –
So much trouble for something
That just gets in your way.
Goodbye. Goodbye.
See you on the other side.
But if we don't meet again
And this is really goodbye,
Know that I'll be hoping
The last thing you feel is a happy high!
