Count to Ten - Ketzer

No place

No home

No light

Black marks on white

No place — The great planes

No home

No light — In darkness

I will become

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven eight, nine

Ten thousand specks of dust

Ten thousand worms

Ten thousand blades of grass

Endless — The winding path

My earthbound flesh won’t last

A lifetime goes by so fast

In the flickering light I close my eyes

As the years go by, go by…

This prayer is a six branched tree

Read aloud!

Shout out!

Mouth to mouth!

Ear to ear!

Lip to lip!

To the spheres of eternity

Not a song for the dead but for those

Who are willing to live 'til the end of time

Water carves the stone

And I stand alone, I stand alone…

Beside the six branched tree

Read aloud!

Shout out!

Mouth to mouth!

Ear to ear!

Lip to lip!

To the spheres of eternity
