Coffin

A coffin is a funerary box used for viewing or keeping a corpse, either for burial or cremation.

The word took two different paths, Cofin in Old French originally meaning basket, became Coffin in English and became Couffin in modern French which nowadays means a cradle. A distinction is often made between coffin and casket: the latter is generally understood to denote a four-sided (almost always rectangular) funerary box, while a coffin is usually six sided. However, coffins having a one-piece side with a curve at the shoulder instead of a join are more commonly used in the UK.

Etymology

First attested in English in 1380, the word coffin derives from the Old French cofin, from Latin cophinus, which means a basket, which is the latinisation of the Greek κόφινος (kophinos), "basket". The earliest attested form of the word is the Mycenaean Greek ko-pi-na, written in Linear B syllabic script.

Any box in which the dead are buried is a coffin, and while a casket was originally regarded as a box for jewelry, use of the word "casket" in this sense began as a euphemism introduced by the undertaker's trade. A distinction is commonly drawn between "coffins" and "caskets", using coffin to refer to a tapered hexagonal or octagonal (also considered to be anthropoidal in shape) box and casket to refer to a rectangular box, often with a split lid used for viewing the deceased as seen in the picture above. Receptacles for cremated and cremulated human ashes (sometimes called cremains) are called urns.

Captain America

Captain America is a fictional superhero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. Created by cartoonists Joe Simon and Jack Kirby, the character first appeared in Captain America Comics #1 (cover dated March 1941) from Timely Comics, a predecessor of Marvel Comics. Captain America was designed as a patriotic supersoldier who often fought the Axis powers of World War II and was Timely Comics' most popular character during the wartime period. The popularity of superheroes waned following the war and the Captain America comic book was discontinued in 1950, with a short-lived revival in 1953. Since Marvel Comics revived the character in 1964, Captain America has remained in publication.

Captain America wears a costume that bears an American flag motif, and is armed with a nearly indestructible shield that he throws at foes. The character is usually depicted as the alter ego of Steve Rogers, a frail young man enhanced to the peak of human perfection by an experimental serum to aid the United States government's imminent efforts in World War II. Near the end of the war, he was trapped in ice and survived in suspended animation until he was revived in the present day. Although Captain America often struggles to maintain his ideals as a man out of his time with its modern realities, he remains a highly respected figure in his community which includes becoming the long-time leader of the Avengers.

Coffin.

Take your crosses,
I'll live without them,
Standing wet in holy
rain.
When you were
baptized,
Ignored the problem,
That's when I watched
you seal your grave.
I tried to save you,
But let you drink the
pain,
A final song now we
both know.
So I'm not givin' up,
Won't let you suffocate
You find your hell is
home.
I don't owe you
anything,
You'll only die a dream
forgotten,
I've got my pride so
hear me sing,
I'll never let you steal
my coffin.
Words as weapons,
pierce into you,
So self-righteous, have
it your way,
I'm alive and now I'm
burning,
Say a prayer to end
today.
I tried to save you,
But let you drink the pain,
A final song now we
both know.
So I'm not givin' up,
Won't let you suffocate
You find your hell is
home.
I don't owe you
anything,
You'll only die a dream,
forgotten,
I've got my pride so
hear me sing,
I'll never let you steal
my coffin.
*Instrumental*
NEVER LET YOU STEAL
MY AFTERLIFE.
NEVER LET YOU STEAL
MY AFTER LIFE!
So I'm not givin' up,
Won't let you suffocate
You find your hell is
home.
I don't owe you
anything,
You'll only die a dream,
forgotten,
I've got my pride so
hear me sing,
I'll never let you steal
my coffin.
I don't owe you
anything,
You'll only die a dream,
forgotten,
I've got my pride so
hear me sing,
I'll never let you steal
