  Headstones

Originally posted by Theo Today it is on his headstone in this form: "I have climbed my broken ladders to glory." This would include his broken body, broken relationships around him, and more. It's still one of my faves in a very personal way. I was thrilled to sing it as a duet with Terry at C-Stone this last year. When Terry left his handwritten cheat sheet on the music stand you better believe I grabbed it for my scrap book! Wrinkled and pasted in the book. Another broken ladder? Probably.

I love that bit about the headstone.


Just to get morbid here - what TST lyrics would you want on your headstone.

For me...


"Awake this dreamer in the arms of The Beautiful One."

"We'll meet again in another place & time."

but I don't plan on having a headstone.

we've explored the patchwork of Americana
the curios and the burger plates
we got a blessing from the Queen of the Highway,
paid attention to a sign that said "Jesus Saves"

assuming i had a headstone it would be either this:

When you say your prayers
please include my name
if my humanity causes you some pain
Hoping for the best
and I will do the same
So hold up my heart
if I twist your brain

or this:

hey fellas, let's have a burger bash!

  Headstone

I think I'd like this on my headstone, a slightly modified lyric:
"he's at the dance in his underpants"

it would be a cruel thing to put on your tombstone!
right up there with "I can see up your dress!"

I am sorry... forget I said that!
