Died Alive

I died while I was alive
and it sure was unexpected
when I never was anything else
but way too young
I could have given birth to enormous works
of how to save the world to the year 4201
Sure I could have
But then I died

I can't greatly complain
my life was comfortable, rather nice
and I guess everyone else was satisfied with it too
But it doesn't mean
that I didn't protest anyhow
Because I was supposed to get the thousandth new person
and start a new diet again tomorrow
or at least after Christmas
Death doesn't really fit that pattern

I was still fully alive
I don't want to, alright
I'm not yet fascinated by the hereafter
So could I have myself back
