Title: Your epitaph as a song lyric? Post by: Trevor on August 01, 2012, 07:47:24 AM Mine is and always will be:
Carry on, my wayward son There'll be peace when you are done Lay your weary head to rest Don't you cry no more. Terrible grammar but a great song and appropriate for me. :smile: Title: Re: Your epitaph as a song lyric? Post by: retrorussell on August 01, 2012, 02:16:29 PM Since I've liked older stuff from my youth more than the present, anything from "Old Days" by Chicago or "Living in the Past" by Jethro Tull might be appropriate.

Nobody likes you and you're better off dead Goodbye, we've all come to say goodbye (goodbye) Goodbye (goodbye) Born defeated, died in vain Super-destructive, you were hooked on pain Though your music lingers on All of us are glad you're gone :teddyr: Title: Re: Your epitaph as a song lyric?

Post by: Nakuyabi on August 02, 2012, 01:53:24 AM I'd probably base mine on "Move To The Moon" by Wes King:
I'm gonna move to the moon, And build a haven for lost balloons. I'm gonna move to the moon, So you can call me the lunar groom. All this talk of love and care Is gonna be nothing more than heated air... Title: Re: Your epitaph as a song lyric?

Post by: SynapticBoomstick on September 25, 2012, 01:12:30 PM I'm not sure what determines the appropriate length of an epitaph, so I trimmed my favorite part of this song down to pure essence:
Hey you, you're not their puppet on a string- You can do everything! It's true if you really want to, You can do anything you want. Just like I do. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4dhmweFUXI Love for Lynott and his Lizzies. God speed, you black emperor. An epitaph inspired by musicians in a topic about epitaphs inspired by musicians. You just got incepted, bizatches. :cheers: Title: Re: Your epitaph as a song lyric? Post by: The Burgomaster on September 25, 2012, 03:09:12 PM I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate,
A poet, a pawn and a king. I've been up and down and over and out But I know one thing: Each time I find myself flat on my face, I pick myself up and get back in the race. |
