Eulogy

I wonder what my Eulogy would be like if I died today…

Would I be the bad son that never did anything? Would I be the bum that couldn’t accomplish anything? Would I be a failure?

Would I be remembered for my sense of humour? Would that be a good or bad thing? How would my family react?

The real question I suppose at this point, to myself, would be… Do I give a shit?

That is a good question. Isn’t it…

As always,
James

He had alot to say.
He had alot of nothing to say.
We’ll miss him. (2x)
We’re gonna miss him (2x)

So long.
We wish you well.
You told us how you weren’t afraid to die.
Well then, so long.
Don’t cry.
Or feel too down.
Not all martyrs see divinity.
But at least you tried.

Standing above the crowd,
He had a voice that was strong and loud.
We’ll miss him. (2x)
Ranting and pointing his finger
At everything but his heart.
We’ll miss him. (2x)
We’re gonna miss him (2x)

No way to recall
What it was that you had said to me,
Like I care at all.

But it was so loud.
You sure could yell.
You took a stand on every little thing
And so loud.

Standing above the crowd,
He had a voice so strong and loud and i
Swallowed his facade cuz I’m so
Eager to identify with
Someone above the ground,
Someone who seemed to feel the same,
Someone prepared to lead the way, with
Someone who would die for me.

Will you?
Will you now?
Would you die for me?
Don’t you fuckin’ lie.

Don’t you step out of line. (3x)
Don’t you fuckin’ lie.

You’ve claimed all this time that you would die for me.
Why then are you so surprised when you hear your own eulogy?

You had alot to say.
You had alot of nothing to say.

Come down.
Get off your fuckin cross.
We need the fuckin’ space to nail the next fool martyr.

To ascend you must die.
You must be crucified
For your sins and your lies. [sic]
Goodbye…

Tool owns. And if it makes you feel any less morbid I’d sing at your funeral…and then do a dance of sadness. Or something. Think happy thoughts man!

*stands up and speaks* What can I say about James? He was a good guy, kinda quiet but always willing to listen and give advice. He was the best friend I could ever have and even though we never got to spend time together, I knew that he still cared about me. I’ll miss him dearly. *cries*…ok, lets just hope I don’t have to say that anytime soon ‘cuz I don’t want you to die. love ya james!
