Does death care? Death is unkind, Death breaks hearts, Why death? Do you like to part? Death is here, Death is there, Why death? Why be everywhere? Death is the end, Death is to die, Why death? To make people cry? Death was created, Death is still here, Why death? We live in fear, Death is death, Death is dead, Why death? Because death said.Death is forever, so don’t flirt with deathDeath is painful, so stay away from knifesDeath is not for lovers, so don’t dieDeath is not for me, so don’t even tryDeath is never clear, so be carefulDeath is never fun, so stay away from strangersDeath is never pleasing, so don’t get caught up in the hypeDeath is never fair, so get use to itDeath is always occurring, so don’t forget itDeath is never what u expect, so expect the unexpectedDeath is not for you, so please don’t give upDeath is forever, so don’t forget that

Weird burial rituals
Did you know...

...sometimes the Japanese would kill the wives and animals for the newly deceased? It was so the dead wouldn't be lonely.

...in some countries, if a child died, a dog would be buried with it? Reason: a dog can always find its way home.

...ancient Egyptians would turn their dead in circles to confuse them so they would not return to the living?
