I Don'T
I don't wear red she said
It reminds me of lives past
I now lay in red she said
As I lay here from the blast.
I don't wear black she said
Only when they carried me out
They covered me in black she said
But I want to scream and shout.
I don't wear white she said
It's what they covered me in
I now wear white she said
It covers all my skin.
I don't like coffins she said
Now this is where I abide
The coffin is where I sleep she said
Since the day that I died.
