As I've walked through
The valley of the underworld
With death lurking close behind
You see the smile on my face
Might be replaced
With my screams of please
Take pity I am ignorant

It's my prayer
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/k/kilgore/prayers+for+the+dying_20496207.html ]
The faces I have known
They all have stranger's eyes
Within this inhuman world
I've beaten death all my life
And I will not deny
The existence of some faith
When I'm about to die

It's my prayer

Take me away some other day
Since I have seen it
My scars reveal
That I'm not ready to burn
Since I have seen it
My scars reveal
That I am not ready to burn
