Song language: English
Funeral Pyre |
| I wake up with the same pain every night |
| Digging a hatchet into my left side |
| Clearing my chest of something to burn |
| Ash for a decorative urn you keep in your mantelpiece; |
| Like a trophy for everything |
| That withers eventually |
| Call me a coward, but I’m too scared to leave |
| 'Cause I want you to be the last thing I see |
| C’mon, call me a coward, because I’m too scared to leave |
| Watched you pouring lighter fluid out onto the leaves |
| And I would’ve loved you with the dying fire |
| Let you smother me down to the embers |
| Frostbite turning my limbs as black as cinder of funeral pyre |
| And I would have stayed if you’d asked me to |
| Stood outside till my lips turn blue |
| I wouldn’t have blamed you |
| For leaving me there on the porch while you drank gasoline |
| 'Cause it’s what you needed so bad |
| And it’s true |
| It’s nothing that we could do |
