What do the bones say? Do they have regret? Do they miss the day They weren't dead yet? If I speak to some, Will they make a fuss? "I hope you don't come- Be glad you're not us!" "There's nary a thing As bad as this - Death. To life you should cling, Don't take your last breath!" "It crawls in our skins That we are alone, We still have our sins Which we can't atone." But the bones won't speak. They're just dust and ash. Their future is bleak. They've made their last splash. Their voices unheard. Their prospects are through. So don't join their herd, Or you won't speak too.

What comes after?

Is it worth losing the chance to ever be heard again?
