Eternally Forgotten

Birth is the start of death
The endless process of decaying breath
Time has taken its toll
And your lungs resemble coal
Your life's so important in your own eyes
There's no way to prevent demise
And when your still here
Chresih the moments you hold dear
Because all that you've done
Amounts to nothing when you're gone
And when you're found lying in shit
Few people will care one bit
Kiss the Dead man's face
To respect someone who finished the race
Are the tears from sorrow or joy
Or tradition taught when they were boys
Laid to rest beneath the earth
