Well, I've given this one to Checkerbored, to put in her collection, so i thought i might as well send this out to all you people out here in the gret expanse of the Net. It's my latest song (well that i see fit to publish), called, for simplcity, "The Funeral Song"
The Funeral Song
As I see the crimson,
I hear the band playing
Not solemnly for me
Playing my chords,
Singing my lyrics,
i wish i could hear it
my road to nowhere wand'rings
finally revealed... out loud
What would you do,
If my life was swept away,
would you grieve,
would you honour me?
would you play my song,
would you do it.. for me.
It trickles down my arm,
and i finally see the harm,
the i put on all the faces of my friends
Playing my bari
Reciting my poem
my soul is torn
and so are the words
upon this sheet... of mine
What would you do,
If my life was swept away?
Would you grieve,
would you honour me?
would you play my song,
would you do it.. for me..
my vision is blurring,
my life no longer stirring
my time is almost up.
Singing the notation
I hear all the lyrics
from my seat above the crowd
I wish you could see me
so proud of you all
no better friends could ever... be found
What would you do,
If my life was swept away?
Would you grieve,
would you honour me?
would you play my song,
would you do it.. for me..
What would you do,
If my life was swept away?
Would you grieve,
would you honour me?
would you play my song,
would you do it.. for me..

Great song, Biff... it really makes you think about the aftermath of life and remembrance.
Rest assured you've got a few decades to forget about it.
