Death man talking    (Tom Janssens)

If I like the life I live, you ask.
Let me think ...
Am I a happy man to know what I have done?
Good question...
Am I proud of what I have become
Got a minute?
Will my death just be the well-deserved rest or will it be
Will it be the end of my misery?

Maybe this is an akward question to ask
A dying man...
Hope you don't mind to tell me all these little things
Hope you don't
This is hardly the time to put you through this...
No time at all
But I wanna know if this life I live has any sense
Any sense... Any sense at all...

Oh why, oh why
Cant't you give me the knowledge of life?
Shouldn't I, shouldn't I
Be armed to meet the future?
I realize, I realize
I have to face the unexpected
And each surprise, each surprise,
Will add colour to the picture

I can remember the time I was your age.
Still very young...
Standing on the brink of my life with choices to be made
Sweet pain
Asking the very same questions... that you are asking me now
I didn't get the answers that I had hoped to get. No answer...
No answer... thank God I got no answer!

Chorus

But I'd like to know, sir... what the hell I'm supposed to expect
In this life...
What's the secret for a happy, successful life?
Please tell me.. I beg you to tell me...
It can't be that hard to share these secrets with me
These precious secrets
I might learn what I have to know to die smiling
To die smiling... I wish I could die smiling

Chorus
