Hello, God
Are you there?
I'm coming up for you
Is that even you?
Take me home
Hello, God
I am here
You killed my body
But saved my soul
Even though I died
Before I got old
What does that matter?
I am with you
The stem has broken from my blossom
I'm not coming home tonight
My body absent and decaying
But my soul is flying
Eternal escape from the flames
Here I won't experience my past sadness and shame
Goodbye, world
Hello, God
Once again
Death is life in itself
For the ones I loved, when they meet their end
I will see again my old friends
Tommorow will start without me
Enjoy your life, do not stay sad
I will see you again
