Six Feet Under

Six feet under 
No one even cares 
Six feet under 
No one knows you there
Six feet under 
From head to toe 
Six feet under 
Lays another john doe
Six feet under
It’s a disgrace 
Six feet under
No name in this place
Six feet under
Another flower bed
Six feet under
No stone to rest your head
Six feet under
No loved one’s gather round
Six feet under
Pile of bones in the ground
