BE OUR LAST






Let each word carry the weight

Of a casket crystal clear




Let them spin the spools

into cassettes we never again will hear




Let pens be tools to rewind them tight

So that play and record can their record recite




Let there be no headliners

No stealers of the show




Let there be only headlines;

That my sisters I ain’t even gotta say

it’s just something they know




Let each word carry the weight

Of a casket crystal clear




Let them die on in song

Long after we are here.
