Nov 2015
Train the silk worms to crawl in formation
Over my corpse
In China, they wont of heard how I died
By a broken heart

Classic

But teach them to trace the skin on my body
Show them to dance over my frame
Let them see the effect of loss

Lead them over me
They could almost pass through me

My heart once hard
Till you made it soft
Held it together
So it wouldn't get lost

Teach them to run
Over my eyes
I will never see you again
Never journey inside your mind
Not be part
Of the moments when you are kind

Between my fingers they can sleep
Where your hands once held
Each of my own

Teach the silk worms to crawl in formation
Make me a casket of finest silk
Let them wrap me up in lace
So you can no longer see my face
