Feel it in the soles of your shoes,
creeping till it claims all of you
No it won't let up until you want it to
When was it that I found?
A reason to make a sound
Holy as the day you were born
Softly you were cradled by the world
Your maker was your lips first word
But mother can I say?
I was not born yesterday
I've learned things I'd rather have not
Oh father I have sinned,
and it cost me all that I am
My coffin shall be black,
Six angels at my back
Two to sing and two to pray
And two to carry my soul away
