lyrics

“Oh, bury me not in the cold, deep sea”
These words came low and mournfully
From the dying lips of a youth who lay
On his cabin bed at the close of day

“I wish to lie where a mother’s prayer
And a sister’s tear can mingle there
Where friends can come and weep for me
Oh, bury me not in the cold, deep sea”

“Oh, bury me not…” and his voice fell there
But we took no heed to his dying prayer
In a liquid grave, despite his plea
We buried him there in the cold, deep sea

this fits well into the late 90s-early 2000 era of rock music. Has some of that same spunk of punk rock from bands like green day to me. It's a head banger for sure daneascott
