Have you ever had a seizure? Respiratory failure? Fainted? Diabetes? Cancer? Or maybe you've simply lost the will to live! Whatever your ailment, from the common cold to certain doom, we've all had that invasive and persistent notion. "This is the end."

lyrics

"I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree...
...And I will have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow."

I think I'm dying
Like watching mushroom clouds form on the horizon
I'm pretty sure I'm dying

Everything fades after flashing before me
I can't come up with an end to my story
You can take it to the bank, I take it to the grave with me
Carrying the weight of a thousand years of misery
Nothing that I do can bring it all back again
and try as I might, it's a battle I'll never win
You can see it in my eyes, I see it in my reflection
My body's not a temple, it's more like a mausoleum

There's a place that I'm not allowed to be
a paradise I saw in a vision of Innisfree
Take me back to there, take me back to my home
Address me by my name so I don't have to die unknown.
But no Valhalla, no loved ones awaiting me
I lived a life of introversion
Singing into the breeze
You can echo words I say, you can repeat my ways
but no one's gonna miss you if you have my face
