Death Rattle
Death rattle of interest
Hear it sound, and be blessed
In a moment, in a flash
Light too bright, then you crash
Seems to be just in your head
All the sense has just fled
Useless, useful, which is it?
Break straight down, throw a fit
Must be close to the jump
Dirty and down in the dumps
Spread your arms, just don’t look
Last breath that you ever took
Angel wings flutter free
Then she makes a final plea
Never mind that she cries
Realize that everything dies
Flying free over the hills
Peace of mind, slow and still
Death rattle helps you release
Never was, now you cease
Hear it sound, and be blessed
In a moment, in a flash
Light too bright, then you crash
Seems to be just in your head
All the sense has just fled
Useless, useful, which is it?
Break straight down, throw a fit
Must be close to the jump
Dirty and down in the dumps
Spread your arms, just don’t look
Last breath that you ever took
Angel wings flutter free
Then she makes a final plea
Never mind that she cries
Realize that everything dies
Flying free over the hills
Peace of mind, slow and still
Death rattle helps you release
Never was, now you cease
