body from äntligen... eller? by karljohan

whatever it takes for the elements to keep it together
whatever it takes for the elements to dissolve
it's got always the same mass being a body or a pile of ash

it's not a big deal to be on your own
if you can choose when
though it might as well be fine
not to stay forever alone

the kid would feel sorry for all animals
that his mother said would end up in the earth
if you don't have a soul then when you die
you won't be granted a place in heaven

oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, phosphorus, calcium, nitrogen

mommy, why would daddy kill our rabbit in the backyard?
and then his body turned into ash

it's not a big deal to rot in the earth
if you can choose when
though it might as well be fine
to die forever alone
