Remember My Name



I will fight till the end of the line
But it doesn't mean that I won't yield to the light
Give me strength so I can have more time
Son forgive me I won't make it to the night
I will be gone by dusk And buried by noon
Cry if you must But the truth comes “I must go soon”
Deal with my passing in a solemn way
Gift me hope that you'll be great
Never forget what happened today
Or you will end up with a terrible fate
Do not endure untamed But forget your feelings and remember my name
