Memento mori
it’s just the very same old story
You live and you die no glory
Your time is a borrowed thing
Hopefully some pleasure it will bring
Death I embrace you with glee
Memento mori
You bless me with abundant life
My share of joy trouble and strife
Clouds they float calm and sure
Under and endless sky of azure
Engulf embrace and consume me
Memento mori
The minutes become hours see
Weeks and years become history
Here today and gone tomorrow
A maelstrom of love hate hope and sorrow
My fate awaits and eternal sanctuary
Memento mori
Escape there is none
Of many you are but one
Your time has finally come
Carpe diem you had a good run
Memento mori
