lyrics

If in the end I lie with no one
That's ok
Not one personal possession
I could give away
Wouldn't mean my life was loveless
Absent of friends
Treasure-less and empty
Beginning to the end

If I wane away in winter
That's alright
In the gloomiest and coldest
And darkest of nights
Wouldn't mean I hadn't flowered
Many years in spring
Never had a bright day
Or brought some light to shadowed things

How do you want to be remembered?
What would you like people to say
About you
For decades to come
After your last day?
Will it work out that way?

Legacy
A fallacy I say
What matters are the nudges
I gave along the way
Little things I did for people
Even though they may not know
Little things I did for culture
Even though they may not show
As far as audits go
Even though they may not show
Even though they may not know
