We live to die and that is why
As living time expires
My flames will turn to embers
And give way to hotter fires
I’ll recognize the lies I’ve lived
My truth will be revealed
The things that made me who I was
Won’t need to be concealed
Don’t bury me but burn the shell
That people knew as me
I’ll cheat the rot and be forgot
Embracing not to be
