the light fades my responsibilities dissipating blowing away in the high wind darkness consumes me until all I know is the waft of your cedar cologne Inside the coffin your lingering stare no longer burns my skin soil falls on me from the heavens the boom louder than your cries of ***** your angry that the funeral dress you chose is too revealing, in death I should not care for your opinions, my ghost should haunt you, instead your voice will not leave me alone

The restless dead
the light fades my responsibilities dissipating blowing away in the high wind darkness consumes me until all I know is the waft of your cedar cologne Inside the coffin your lingering stare no longer burns my skin soil falls on me from the heavens the boom louder than your cries of ***** your angry that the funeral dress you chose is too revealing, in death I should not care for your opinions, my ghost should haunt you, instead your voice will not leave me alone
