This track reads like a suicide note or the final wish of a person who knows they are going to die soon. There is a sense of inevitability (`If I die / And I will) to the lyrics, which makes it clear that the person speaking here knows they are going to die and probably decided to do so themselves.
If I die
And I will
Oh please, please bury me
In the ground by the school
Where I once worked
If I'm killed
As I will
Oh please, please raise a stone
And inscribe all of these here lonely words:
How do I wake your sleeping heart?
