But from death, comes life!

What funeral songs would you like to be played during your burial? For me, I see 3 options:
Deadman's Gun - Ashtar Command.
This song means much more when you've completed both Red Dead Redemption games. I chose it as a candidate since I relate to both John Marston and Arthur Morgan. An outlaw living his worst life possible, hurting countless people and being selfish. I too am living a life of an outcast, although I don't get a redemption at the end. I will, in fact, die a villain, causing destruction around those I loved.
Invincible - World of Warcraft.
Those of you who played WoW during it's prime (2007-2010) for sure know Arthas. Those who don't, it was a hero willing to sacrifice everything for his people. In the end, he sacrificed himself and became an instrument of death, causing mass destruction. I too had good intentions, but by forming unhealthy habits I've become an instrument of both narc destruction and manipulation. My story will end tragically, just like Arthas'.
That's The Way It Is - Daniel Lanois.
Once again, we come across Red Dead Redemption. This song tells us how unjust life is, but "that's the way it is". In the end, we cannot do anything about it and only strive to change for the better, blindly hoping for salvation that may never come. At the state where you've come to terms with death and you're willing to accept your undoing, you start feeling gratitude towards everyone who makes your day better, even if by a bit. Everything seems pretty peaceful then. You wish everyone around you to end better than you did. To never let themselves be consumed by darkness, hatred, the desperate desire for power. The song's atmosphere truly is something special.
