When your time comes
When your time comes, will you look death straight in the eye
Will you refuse to go quietly, curse and refuse to die
When the time comes will you cry out and let the tears flow
Will you accept your time has come and it is your time to go
When your time comes, would you prefer to be in hospital or at home
Do you want to be surrounded by strangers, or would you want to die alone
When your time comes, would you want it to be fast or slow
Would you keep it to yourself or want everyone to know
When your time comes, would you want to say goodbye
Or say nothing to loved ones because you don’t want to make them cry
When the time comes and you know that is your fate
Make the most of your life now because death will not wait
