Live To Be Buried

The world had forgotten how to live and let it be

In the end we see the same

A shallow coffin 

No more spite

No more shame

In the end forever be

Buried deep beside a tree

In the end we lay close together

In a place to see eachother

A place we all belong to one another

No two buried will have a reason

To pity or envy

No-one to judge us

But god himself

And the old oak tree
