As I lay Dying, Sing me a Lullaby
Wipe away the tears I cry
In my last moments, pretend you care
Be something steady in my life for once
As I lay Dying, Sing me a Lullaby
Sing from your Heart, even if you don't mean it
Sing from your Soul, even if it's as black as mine
As I lay Dying, Sing me a Lullaby
Make me feel loved, lie to me if you will
Just don't leave me alone in the dark
As I lay Dying, lull me to sleep,
With a Lullaby of lies.

Body Needs Oxygen
be it sun or rain, I will go for a walk— the body needs oxygen. Some people skip walks, giving different issues or weather conditions as excuses. I don’t. Yet if there is wildfire smoke, leaf blower gas fumes, or mulch machines running, I will delay or skip.
