I'd say rest in peace But I refuse to admit you're gone I envy the clay and trees That get to cradle you in their arms Has the earth's embrace Brought you comfort at least And if so, can you please let me know So like you, I too, can rest in peace And be free of life and its jaws

Jaws of Life
I'd say rest in peace But I refuse to admit you're gone I envy the clay and trees That get to cradle you in their arms Has the earth's embrace Brought you comfort at least And if so, can you please let me know So like you, I too, can rest in peace And be free of life and its jaws
