I wonder if it’s better to be ash than to be bone
I don’t want to see the ground
when they send me back home
Borne of the sky like a bird
meant to fly on the wind
You gotta know where you stand
when it comes to the end, my friend
It casts a shadow over me
Sometimes it gets so dark
It’s too dark to see
Everything is everything
We’re all electricity and meat
Energy to feed more need
For heat in the machine
Think of the tree that was
Felled by the hands of a man
Tossed to the fire when he’s
Taken all the cold that he can stand
Or the animal that’s hanging
In the window by the pound on the street
It was once a vessel but now
It’s on the level of your feed
You are nothing different just an animal
By any other name
Food for the ground or the water
Or the sky just the same
