|
| Bear in mind | |
| That death is a drum | |
| Beating forever | |
|
|
Till the last worms come |
|
|
To answer its call, |
|
|
Till the last stars fall, |
|
|
Until the last atom |
| Is no atom at all, | |
|
|
Until time is lost |
| And there is no air | |
| And space itself | |
| Is nothing nowhere, | |
| Death is a drum, | |
|
|
A signal drum, |
|
Calling life |
|
|
To come! |
|
|
Come! |
|
|
Come! |
|
|
