Can't Keep Lyrics

Well, when I said "so that life can continue in other forms" all I meant was that when you die, all the biological material that was formerly trapped in your body will be used as food for insects, plants and eventually other animals so that they may live. So, the energy that was in you still exists, it doesn't just disappear. I wasn't actually meaning that a persons conciousness continues to exist after they die. I'm just clarifying what I was talking about though, not knocking your own beliefs. I did also say that no one really knows what happens when we die and I stand by that.
