Everybody Dies
Still and silent the crickets sing.
Cold and purple this human being.
Burried and forgotten this girl will be.
Long pass the years no memory of me.
Better place to go but I am no more.
Good times you ponder, smiling you explore.
Hide the cries, who cares we die.
No one wants to say goodbye.
Don’t feel loss only regret.
Only wish I paid my debt.
And so farewell off to sleep.
Slowly I rot as you will weep.
Not for me dry your eyes.
Everyone knows why you cry.
Off I go sunken below.
Its time to walk the streets of gold .
See you when we wake.
Rest well for goodness sake.
Blink goes the eye.
Put away your silly goodbyes.
No one cares that everyone dies.
