NDE

I've been reminded of it lately
I guess the gods above must hate me
I always thought I was immortal
Now I know
I gotta think of what's important

I don't remember how it started
Maybe too many years of heartache
Now I could see my life in review
Was it real
Or just an endless lucid dreaming

Oh it's frightening (it's frightening)
But yet so delightful (delightful)
I saw a strong light in the tunnel
Shining brighter than the sun, and
Knocking on the door to heaven

I heard a sound
Backing up the singing angels
Oh it's frightening (it's frightening)
But yet so delightful (delightful)
I wasn't climbing up a stairway

More like floating, drifting away
A sense of total painlessness
But who knows
Maybe it's just hallucinations
Suddenly leaving my own body

Until I'm floating right above it
I could see myself immobile
Out of reach
Turning pale and almost blue eyed
Oh it's frightening (it's frightening)
But yet so delightful (delightful)
