DARK of NIGHT

In the dark of night, my soul filled with fright.
I can feel the warm wetness covering my body
as I lay in my blood and the cold of the mud.

I think its not that bad if I can still feel the pain,
then once again it starts to rain. I think of who I
have done wrong, wished I said I sorry before I'm
dead and gone.

In the dark of night, trying to make things right. I
scream and yell, I don't want to go to hell. I can
feel death now coming near, I shivered with fear.
I drank one for the road before I got in my car, I
didn't get that far from the bar.

That's when in the dark of night, I seen a light. Oh
thank you I was crying, laying there dying. The car
stopped to render aid, a voice a said don't be
afraid. That voice called me by name, I'm thinking
I've gone insane.

The dark of night, was giving way to the morning
light. There was a feeling of peace as I seen that
sunrise, I was looking down at myself from above
and knew this happens when a person dies.
