Let there be... ;
Let there be a God,
Buddha, Allah, or anything divine.
Let there be an afterlife.
Oh afterlife be sweet.
Be heaven.
Be a peaceful place for all those wandering souls
That have left the earthly bodies
Of our loved ones.
Let them rise to something better than dark caskets
That lie six feet under.
Let there be heavenly gates
That so many people preach of.
Let them open themselves and let you in.
Let there be angels
And let them make you one of them.
Let there be someone, something,
Beyond this life.
Somewhere
Where you may find your peace
So I can find mine.

soaring above mountains like the mighty eagle
I run through the forest at
Devotion
we were lifting the plyboards we put down-
to keep the dump from destroying the grass
when we back it over
