My Funeral

Remember me like the holocaust Many die without having the chance to live Millions of them without a funeral Bury them with a casket full of bouquets Remember me like the Great Depression Markets crashing from the sky People try to find a new hope Bury them with a casket full of bouquets Remember me like Abraham Lincoln Innocence died before it had the chance to discover freedom Bruises and wounds, too much hate to move on Bury them with a casket full of bouquets Remember me like the Pope Always forgiving and justifying the facts Way up in the clouds we all go, Bury them with a casket full of bouquets Remember me like Martin Luther King Jr. Giving up my own rights to end segregation Bloody violence in the streets God bless us all Bury them with a casket full of bouquets Remember me like the kids from Columbine Assault rifles and bullets stray in the high school cafeteria Empty souls and dreams fill the school with ghostly thoughts Bury them with a casket full of bouquets Remember me like the people on 9/11 Jumping a hundred stories to avoid burning All the innocent blood spilled because of the Middle East Bury them with a casket full of bouquets Remember me like the Pharaoh Build me a temple and a shrine Put everything in tomb that reminds me of life Bury me with a casket full of bouquets
