When all the tombstones one day succumb and crumble away to dust There will be Hope still left over, I trust For all the dead souls who deserve not to be forgot In a fair and just world there must
For all those darling celebrities who were lovely and hot And worked tirelessly to be worshiped for something they were not They toiled and twisted to be seen as the best of the best Was all their admirable effort for naught?
And all those soldiers robbed of being old, who were laid to rest To suffer together in a place of pain at someone elseโs behest Who chose to go to a place that we call inhumane And then died with their wishes and dreams unexpressed
And for all those persons we see everyday Who should not disappear, and deserve to have their stories be told But truly to those that have pulled us from sorrow and shown us the way And made our ordinary lives shine a hue of brilliant gold
I hope that one day dust will be forgotten as something to fear And that high Heaven can come softly rest on the mortal sphere
