Lyrics
The ghost of acquisition and accumulation of stuff,
now asking for authentic alignment of love,
laughs because he will never be burden-free;
he'll only see death when he lived his dreams.
Know that greater simplicity is never easy;
is he complacent for his complexity?
He wrote his own tombstone and built his own casket,
saying, "As long as I'm alive, I'm not done with you yet."
[Chorus]
You and me, memento mori;
you and them, I have to bury;
me and him, the path to glory,
no epitaphs of feeling sorry.
Both of us, memento mori;
which of the past we have to bury?
Death is watching; you have to hurry.
What will be on my obituary?
[Verse]
The ghost of acquisition
Accumulating stuff
Now asking for aligning love but he's never had enough
Laughs in the face of liberation from his chains
He'll only see death when he lived out all his dreams
Is simplicity greater? It's never easy to be
Is he complacent in his complexity?
He wrote his own tombstone and built his own casket
Saying "I'm alive
I'm not done
Still gotta make it happen"
[Verse 2]
You and me
Memento mori
You and them
I have to bury
Me and him
The path to glory
No epitaphs of feeling sorry
[Chorus]
Both of us
Memento mori; which of the past we have to bury?
Death is watching; you have to hurry
What will be on my obituary?
[Verse]
Lost in the abyss
I search for meaning
Haunted by the past
The memories repeating
Memento mori
The clock is ticking fast
What will be my legacy when I breathe my last?
[Verse 2]
Drowning in regrets
I'm tangled in despair
Death's cold embrace
It's always lingering in the air
Time is slipping away
The urgency is clear
What will they say when I'm no longer here?
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
You and me, memento mori;
you and them, I have to bury;
me and him, the path to glory,
no epitaphs of feeling sorry.
Both of us, memento mori;
which of the past we have to bury?
Death is watching; you have to hurry.
What will be on my obituary?
[End]
