I never died
People can see me
But why do they run away
Like I'm a ghost
Appearing dark during the day
Why do they look so scared
Why are they running away
I remember they used to hate me
Now why are they changing the way
These are the people
Who made me lay down
Deep in my bed
Far away from the town
I like them being scared
I laugh as they run from me
It was them who used to laugh
Now it's me laughing with glee
It was a fun day
Everyone thinks they are brave
But I'm glad I proved them wrong
As I peacefully lay in my grave
