lyrics

I'm ready to die when the time should come
There's no need to hide, no need to run
The fear has left me, the sting is gone
I'm ready to rise in the eternal dawn

I’m ready to die, though I love this life
But there’s more life ahead than there is behind
And if I have to choose I’d be caught between
All there is to gain in the world I haven’t seen

What would you give to save your soul
To spend forever growing young instead of old?
Do you think you’ve had your fill, that this is all there is?
Do you hope to be surprised? Do you dare make a wish?

I’m ready to die, though it’s not polite to say
There’ll be less confusion when death is put away
And the road goes on, on out of sight
But come what come may, we’ll reach the other side

Would you drink from the river the lion keeps
To satisfy a thirst not quenchable by seas?
Or do you wish to drink alone, somewhere free?
Well, this water is free and there is no other stream

I’m ready to die, but not just yet
There’s still more of you in this world I haven’t met
