When I'm gone
Crystal lynn klosski 1982 (Oak Gill)
When I'm gone,
Don't bury me,
Upon this cold hard ground.,
Where pain is all food and sight is no longer seen and purpose is no longer found.
Don't let me suffer no more nor
Sufficate in vain,
And never forget the silence in between my name.
When I'm gone,
Just know that I will be around.
Because there ain't no grave,
That's gonna hold me down.
From dust we we're created,
And from dust we will return.
Put your faith on top ,
And life's lesson you will learn.
When I'm gone,
Please don't think I'm dead.
Because when I'm gone ,
Its all in your head.
