A Speck in Time
Dust to dust
Earth to earth
A speck in time for what it's worth
My race is run
My deed is done
I now return from whence I've come
To think at six
And two score
Death came knocking at my door
Prepared?
I don't know what to say
It seems this is my judgement day
To eulogize
in thoughts and dreams
Is never quite what it all seems...
No time to spare
What's dead is gone
To Mother Earth I now belong
A speck in time
What's it worth?
'Tis dust to dust and earth to earth!
