lyrics

Have you ever felt a calling
Drawing you somewhere?
A place you feel you've been before !
A connection to what's there?

It was in the local cemetery
I searched for the stone
And what i found filled me with awe ?
The words upon that stone!

[chorus]
Reader behold as you pass by
As you are now so once was i
As i am now so you must be
Prepare for death and follow me.

I'm telling you i felt myself
Down beneath that stone
A life before that i had lived
Centuries far gone.

The name had long since been eroded
The date was barely there.
But all i saw was mine upon
That tombstone's deadly stare.

[chorus]
Reader behold as you pass by
As you are now so once was i
As i am now so you must be
Prepare for death and follow me.
