Death

There's no other way to remove them

This is the only way
This is the answer

Do you believe in god?
They do
They go to him and he answers them
To us he is a fib
There is no other way

This is the only way
They must be shot down
The low will strike your high
They take your banners down
Making us equal through death
Equals by her grasp
Equals by her banner
Which says

This is the only way
This is the answer

Proudly carry her banner
Praise the ever nakedness of it
Burden us with it
Bury us with her

When the music sounds
We will close our eyes
And the earth will cease

I want to die undignified, alone
In a forest
Where I'll rot
No gravestone
No remembrance or fondness
Ahead is an unbeaten path
Where my soul lingers and then passes

I'll make no final claims
No words to speak of
Just breath
And then nothing
