Postmortem

Every day you go to work,
Seeing nothing but sorrow,
How can you go on like this?
Having fear of tomorrow,

The dead come in numbers,
You are the one to count,
Toe tags and body bags,
They add to the amount,

The people who died,
In different ways,
They haunt you now and forever,
Dreary nights and long days,
Just add to your endeavor,

Among the faces of the fallen,
You see your close friend,
Now you must perform your task,
This might be the end,

The autopsy must go on,
But you do not have the stomach,
Your first incision down the sternum,
Causes you to plummet,

You hit the floor your knees collapsed,
You know what you must do,
Taking off the time elapsed,
Wiping vomit off your shoe,

You get to your feet,
And look at your buddy,
The name Dave is on the tag,
Can
 
Very upbeat. :P

Would like to hear it with some background instruments instead of the band in my head playing along. Have you written anything else for this but the lyrics?
 
Pretty good lyrics for something, they got a nice rhythmic structure and while the theme is depressing its conveyed rather straight forward, which fits the structure nicely. What kinda music you put these too?
