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 we die)
When we're high (when we're high)
The gatekeeper hides, hides his eyes
Lets us by
When we're 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
'Cause I won't be there tonight
Mother, please don't be sad

When we die (when we die)
When we're high (when we're high)
The gatekeeper hides
Hides his eyes
Lets us by
When we're high
When we die
