take the song birds song and glee
take the flowers fall and it's seed
to a bridge or a lake
it's a better way
when i die all my troubles can stay
la da di
la da day
la da di
la da day
la da day
somewhere a rose pricks and bleeds
somewhere a skull is full of weeds
and a girl with nothing
will weep and say
when i die all my troubles can stay
i wish i gave just one sweet fuck
i wish i had a young man's luck
but i don't and that's all
this leaves to say
when i die all my troubles can stay
