Autopsy
A stranger stands over
Asking what led to your demise
Your secrets can no longer hide
From the moment you die
To when they cut you open
To investigate your insides
Your sins Your wounds
Are no longer hid within
Still they ask " what happened to you"
On the outside it's clear rigimortis has set in
It's still not clear what cause your end
They make many observations and notes about you
But sadly your frozen and stiff
there's nothing you can do
Yet you still speak from beyond the grave
But you don't make a sound or even a wave
Your answers come with the conditions of your organs
And the bind marks found on your skin
The time of your death
Is known by temperature of your liver
Tho you lay still
In some ways you stand and deliver
