My Funeral - By Carroll Bryant

MY FUNERAL - By Carroll Bryant

In a world gone crazy

One man stands alone

Waging war against his technology

Planning the leave that will take him home

In a world gone mad

One man versus society 

Planting the seeds of your dirty little secrets

Waging war against the gods of eternity

All we can do is live and die

To both of them to wonder why

There is no end and nowhere to go

Talk to you later at my funeral

In a world gone crazy 

One man goes insane

Taking his chances once way too often

Paying a debt that doesn't pain for his pain

In a world gone mad

One man versus the casualties 

Drinking the wine with bittersweet difference

Waging war against seraphic serenity 

All we can prove is live and die

To what that means will make you cry

There is no end and nowhere to go

To seek the truth

Here is my funeral 

I don't have to be pathetic to all that I see

I don't choose to be theistic

I just don't believe 

I don't try to be so different just to be the same

I don't need an obituary just so that I can have a name

In a world gone crazy 

One man becomes a crime

Breathing in all of your oxygen 

Changing the thoughts of your perverted mind

In a world gone mad

One man versus insanity

Counting his blessings with a gun on your children

Waging war against the pope and the presidency 

All we can do is live and die

To what we are and all we try

To face the end with nowhere to go

In search of the future here at my funeral

 

All we can do is live and die

To both of them to wonder why

There is no end and nowhere to go

Talk to you later at my funeral
