When I lay in bed at night

And I should be asleep

There is one thing that bothers me

One thing I can never keep

My mind will cease to exist some day

And my body will decay

It fears me to no end

That it is impossible to stay

'What am I all doing this for'

I ask myself sometimes

My heart starts pounding hard

And I start shaking to my core

Its really terrifying

To be no more

But then I take a deep breath

And i know again what I'm doing it for

It's moments with you, friends and family

And even total strangers

That keep my living days exciting and engaging

I can worry until the day I die

And live without passion

Or I can enjoy every day

And teach death himself a lesson

Why live in fear of something unavoidable

Thats completely out of my powers

While I have full control

Over my living hours

So when I lay in bed at night

And I am long asleep

There is nothing that bothers me

Other than my alarm clock beep
