Don't go away,
Don't leave me here in my cold grave.
Don't go away,
Don't steal the light of the day.
Don't go away,
Don't disappear into shades of gray.
Don't go away, my life, I pray.
Sometimes my life was an easy game,
The clouds above were made of down;
I felt the glory, I gained the fame.
I don't regret what I have done.
Sometimes my life was hard to live,
I carried a cross on my bent back;
I have been caged for my beliefs,
I have been stabbed to pay my debts.
I plead: my life, don't leave me now,
I am not ready to retreat.
I want to fight, I want to shout,
I want to love, I want to live.
