Bury Me By The Sea
Verse 1
How do you measure
Ones impact in life
Is it friends accumulated
Or levels of wealth
For some of us
Its a life of good deeds
A quiet life spent
With few rewards
Chorus
Bury me by the sea
A seat for a headstone
Where people can sit
And laugh as one
Verse 2
Some chase fame
Historic significance
For others its infamy
A bloodied difference
This is a question
I ask a lot
Are we important
Or just cosmic dust
Chorus
Bury me by the sea
A seat for a headstone
Where people can sit
And laugh as one
Verse 3
When we die
And are finally equal
Not held to race
Creed, good or evil
What then of our importance
Our mark on this world
Mere ashes to feed
This ongoing hell
Chorus
Bury me by the sea
A seat for a headstone
Where people can sit
And laugh as one
Verse 4
My needs are simple
Remembered with laughs
Someone who
Nearly grew up
Chorus
Bury me by the sea
A seat for a headstone
Where people can sit
And laugh as one
