What really happens when we die
Do you ever stop to wonder
Or like me, admit you're frightened
And put it out of your mind
Do and think of other things
Is there really a kingdom of Heaven
Or Hell, for those who have been bad
Isn't it all rather hypocritical to believe in
An all forgiving God for us
But a firey Hell for others
Or is like the Buddists believe
We die to be re-born again
If only this were true
And we could remember our past lives
Perhaps then we'd all be better behaved
No more wars, but more wisdom, less hate
Or is it just The End, that's it
Over, done with, you're finished
This life, is it all we get
If you truly know the answer
Would you please let me know.
