BIGDAN Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 Hi All, Here's a tricky one, what words would you like to appear on your Head Stone (Asuming you have one) as your Epitaph, or appear in your local paper as your Obituary. Just for fun now folks. Regards, Danny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ms_zeppelin94 Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 Parts of IMTOD, probably the "Dont want nobody to moan" part. Maybe It'll make my friends feel better Idk I'm still thinking..I want something besides the normal "Loving mother/friend/wife" Yep, I'm always going to have to be different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cletus Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 The wall on which the prophets wrote Is cracking at the seams. Upon the instruments of death The sunlight brightly gleams. When every man is torn apart With nightmares and with dreams, Will no one lay the laurel wreath As silence drowns the screams. Between the iron gates of fate, The seeds of time were sown, And watered by the deeds of those Who know and who are known; Knowledge is a deadly friend When no one sets the rules. The fate of all mankind I see Is in the hands of fools. Confusion will be my epitaph. As I crawl a cracked and broken path If we make it we can all sit back And laugh. But I fear tomorrow Ill be crying, Yes I fear tomorrow Ill be crying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterMcLov1n Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 I instantly thought of the King Crimson song when I saw the thread title. It would be pretty epic to have at my funeral, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I fear tomorrow Ill be crying, Yes I fear tomorrow Ill be crying. I love this song... favorite by King Crimson. While this is a subject i don't really think about... i think this would be my choice if i had to pick today: And no one sings me lullabies And no one makes me close my eyes So I throw the windows wide And call to you across the sky.

Electrophile Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Here lies Electrophile. Buried face down so the rest of you can kiss her ass. For my serious answer, though......probably a favorite quote of mine with "Loving daughter, sister, friend, mother, wife" on it. The last two are obviously only if I get married and have kids.

Evster2012 Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Inspiration move me brightly. Light the song with sense and color. Hold away despair. More than this I will not ask. Faced with mysteries dark and vast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
