One version of my thoughts on what I want you to do with me after I'm dead and gone/

lyrics

I don't want you to bury me
Please say that you won't
even though that makes you sad

Spread my ashes, don't bury me
Throw me to the wind
that's where i want to be

Cars in a solemn line down a long dirt road
let the trees see you cry then let me go

And i don't mind if you pray for me
to whomever you like
whatever deity

But don't take me to a funeral parlour
I do not like the atmosphere
wouldn't want to say goodbye there

Play, sing sad songs on weeping strings
gather up at my house, take all my things
send me off with a mighty feast
And remember, don't bury me

I don't want you to bury me
Please say that you won't
'cause that would make me sad
