Lyrics:

Mother please don't be sad
I didn't mean to die tonight
But those robbers were so fast
Their guns and their anger and I lost the fight
The ambulance attendants did all they can
And I almost pulled through
But in the end
I won't see you tonight
Mother please don't be sad

When we die
When were high
The gatekeeper hides Hides his eyes
Let’s us by
When were high
When we die

So mother please don't be sad It's only me that's died tonight
There's so much you still have
Remember all the others
That are still alive
Their love will help you
And so would I
Remember to let the dogs outside
Because I won't be there tonight
Mother please don't be sad
When we die
When were high
The gatekeeper hides
Hides his eyes
Let’s us by
When were high
When we die
