Send us a sign

The dead upon mortality is bound no more to the mores of the living
they are no more helpful nor do they heed the tears of the living
our prayers reach not their eternal feasts and perennial parties
God's law concerns them no more in the end and they soon forget


the ungrateful dead are selfish in their abandoning of us
after moving on they cant be moved to send us a sign
how is it over there? is there a god and, does he really care?
do the wicked in hell get torched and their arrogance eternally scorched?


you will be loved friends, family and lovers on this earth only
upon mortality you will be put out of mind and out of our misery unless
you send us a sign that you are happy in the afterlife, if there is one
or we'd just as well turn atheists, godless hedonists
