"It's quite an experience
to hold the hand of someone
as they move
from living to dead."
"Final Exit...
The practicalities
of self-deliverance"
Final Exit
Your Life no longer
has any value
Let them tell you what your
own life is worth
There is no compassion
as life fades away
This self deliverance the choice
you have made
Contemplate your last breath
As you see the face of death
Contemplate your last breath
Breath, slowly breath
Final Exit
The pain in your life
I cannot perceive
Crimes of humanity
I see and believe
Contemplate your last breath
As you see the face of death
Contemplate your last breath
Breath, slowly breath
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
"It's quite an experience
to hold the hand of someone
as they move
from living to dead."
Like the knife
that cuts through me
Stabbing uncertainty
It bleeds my life I know
Draining my heart and soul...
Like the knife
that cuts through me
Stabbing uncertainty
It bleeds my life I know
Draining my heart and soul...
my soul, my soul, my soul...
(goodbye, goodbye...)
Contemplate your last breath
Breath, slowly breath
Goodbye, goodbye...
to hold the hand of someone
as they move
from living to dead."

Is directly from this book finalexit.org/ergo-store/index.php
I could be way off but this song is certainly from my view point about suicide. Not sure if it's about assisted suicide tho.
The indications showing that it could be assisted suicide would be the quote in the middle of the song "It's quite an experience to hold the hand of someone as they move from living to dead."
As that being the voice of the person doing the action. It's a very powerful song and I could see it having a very heavy meaning for many outside of the concept.
