| Thursday, shuffling feet on your cemetery lawn
|
| Weeping about your skin, in your sleep you just slid it off
|
| Just so you could get dressed up in this
|
| Your nightgown of oak, your ribbons of roots
|
| Is there nothing you want from me now, no help I could give but to lower you
|
| down?
|
| Oh all your friends are standing by waving greedy goodbyes
|
| I’ve got nothing now that I want to say
|
| You wouldn’t talk back anyway
|
| And you know we won’t do what you wanted us to
|
| There ain’t nothing here to celebrate
|
| We’re all worse off without you
|
| At that feast in some two star hotel
|
| I’m circling the room and mingling half stunned
|
| Nauseous with the truth of it all
|
| Knowing here the whole time this won’t really fade
|
| Now it just stays in out spines
|
| Oh but we’re all shaking hands offering condolences
|
| Stories of some envied youth, less life threatening more moot
|
| And our eyes they all drown, our tongues get wrung out
|
| There ain’t nothing here for us to taste that ain’t bitter already
|
| They warn us our reservation is up, it just seems so cruel
|
| Like the parasites that eat your thoughts your plot gets covered up
|
| By someone who never even knew you
|
| Oh then the curtain comes down, the crowd it thins out
|
| There’s no reason now for us to stay
|
| And we all hurry home because it won’t be long till we’re in your place |
