If damnation awaits me well that suits me fine
Try to save your own soul sir you cannot save mine
I do not believe in an afterlife or of a heaven or hell
I am just one of those blokes who pens doggerel
I do not have a religion does that mean I am bad
But for my lack of faith for myself I can't feel sad
I do not believe in a God of that why should I lie
I only believe we are born to die
I do believe that my soul will die with me
Though most people tell me how wrong I must be
It is only my ego that makes me fear death
And for life I will struggle till my very last breath
I would like for to live for as long as I can
And die without pain as a very old man.
