Apathetic Epitaph

I don't have much longer to go
Seven years and I'll do away with myself
So I ask why not?
Let's explore the world;
And hear grass breathe,
Hear the moon sing,
And dance with music inside me
I want to feel words,
And be a statement,
And lie in thoughts as I see
Future and past fly by me;
Past posters of gods with guitars
I won't care about people dying
Or the ignorant ranting on the street
I'll smile when someone insults me,
Because they won't feel this,
Or see the simplicity
So I heard it from a friend;
A friend and a song
By a band all velvety maybe I'll try it
I probably will;
And two words when I die,
Carved into stone:
"Why not?"
