Gateways of Bereavement by Katatonia
I stand as I cry
Mourning in the silent rain
Death will light my burden
Endless is my sorrow
Gateways so dark
All these years of dying
Gone are dreams of velvet voices
I am you, we were one
Vast are fields I walk
Where sorrow never dies
The sky unites with the blackened rain
Summon with my tears
Now descend on winterwings
My withering soul..
Let me die,
Gateways of Bereavement
A temple of guilt
Falling deep
Embraced in grief
My withering soul
Let me die
Farewell life and all I died for
Now my time is over on Earth
Another journey ha begun
Alone I died, not praying for mercy
Nor praying for salvation
A lonely journey in a darkened dream
Time has come to spread my wings
Slow....
descending from the silent sky
Death comes to take me away
And from the gateways you hear my cry...
... I love you ...

Where Corals Lie from Sea Pictures by Sir Edward Elgar
The deeps have music soft and low
—When winds awake the airy spry,
It lures me, lures me on to go
—And see the land where corals lie.
—The land, the land, where corals lie.
By mount and steed, by lawn and rill,
—When night is deep, and moon is high,
That music seeks and finds me still,
—And tells me where the corals lie.
—And tells me where the corals lie.
Yes, press my eyelids close, 'tis well,
Yes, press my eyelids close, 'tis well,
—But far the rapid fancies fly
The rolling worlds of wave and shell,
—And all the lands where corals lie.
Thy lips are like a sunset glow,
—Thy smile is like a morning sky,
Yet leave me, leave me, let me go
—And see the land where corals lie.
—The land, the land, where corals lie.
Preferably the version sung by Dame Janet Baker.

I would most likely want to go with a classical piece by Mozart...his Requiem "Lacrimosa"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=swkT07TP-mo
...but then since most people close to me know my sometimes demented sense of humor, would find it necessary to throw in something like "Gloom, Despair & Agony On Me"
