Outside

Don't let me die in a hospital bed
Just take me out to the woods instead
A chapel of trees above my head
And let me die outside

Don't want no doctors, no machines
No big dramatic crying scenes
So much more peaceful it would seem
To let me die outside

Please leave me there upon that hill
Where everything is green and still
No open grave for you to fill
Just let me die outside

For I would ride to Heaven In the bellies of the crows
My body returns to the earth
After my spirit goes
No enbalming fluid for me
I want to decompose
Please let me die outside
