lyrics

Don't let them skin and bone me when I die
Remind them that I once was too alive
To be boiled down to essence or watered down to presence
Don't let them skin and bone me when I die

Just because they skinned and boned you when you died
Doesn't mean that you weren't once too alive
To be boiled down to essence or watered to down to presence
Because they skinned and boned you when you died

But I know they'll skin and bone me when I die
Though they know that I was once too alive
So celebrate my essence and try to feel my presence
But I know they'll skin and bone me when I die

We know they'll skin and bone us when we die
Lest they remember that we were once too alive
So celebrate our essence and try to feel our presence
Because we (I) know they skinned and boned us when we died.
