When King Lear realizes how crazy and dramatic he has been acting. I find that his momment of clarity is when Regan and Goneril leave Lear out in the storm. He then finds Edgar (in disguise as a mental homeless man) and offers him some kindness and realizes he should've helped the homeless when he was king. Hope this helps :).

The last words spoken by King Lear in the play are:

And my poor fool is hang'd: no, no, no life?

Why should a dog, A horse, a rat have life,

And thou no breath at all? Thou'lt come no more,

Never, never, never, never, never.

Pray you undo this button. Thank you sir,

Do you see this? Look on her? look her lips,

Look there, look there.

(Act 5, Scene 3)

Basically everyone dies in King Lear. King Lear, all three of his daughters (Regan, Goneril, Cordelia) die. Edmund and his father Gloucester die, too. It is unknown whether Kent (Lear's faithful servant) also dies in the end because some think his last line suggests his intention of suicide.
