If my body was broken open and you could look inside |
|
Would you only find flesh |
|
Just the useless parts of an obsolete machine |
|
Would there be any sign of life |
|
Or would you only find death |
|
Would there be any evidence of a human soul trying to escape |
|
If a flame once burned within this shell |
|
Set me on fire one last time |
|
Is there a clear division of soul and spirit marrow and joint |
|
Can the human body still give you glory even in death |
|
May the ashes tell the story of what work was done within |
|
May my soul pause to witness as this body goes up in flame |
|
Set me on fire |
