From the album "Bellybuttonhole" (2013)

lyrics

WHEN YOU DIE

You, too engrossed in the vital
to bother with claiming your title,
'til the question looked you in the eye:
who will you be when you die?

Which of the places had claimed you?
Where is the place which had named you,
and where would the "welcome" mat lie
for whom you will be when you die?

There is no permanent record
of such a past all too checkered,
but the future's the permanent size
of every man after he dies.

On that day when I became you,
I was no longer the same you,
as you were that forgotten guy
whom I won't be when I die.
