lyrics

heart shaped garlands
ten shaky cigarettes
open doors, empty halls
gnashing teeth and sweat
are we supposed to think of you
in loving memory
or shall we put up warning signs
for all drunkards to be

they talked me into wearing perfume
not my voice, but in my words
everything is molded wrong
and nothing to revert
people sob and smoke
they shake their heads and joke and sigh
look down at old and young you
bow their heads and say goodbye

it's never fair
it's never fair
i let them stare
they sob and smoke and joke sigh
but no one gets to meet my eye
cause i'm not really there

you would have liked the stories
the polish pastor told
and you would have pretended
not to want a grand big show
but in the end you'd take the stage
adjust the tie and the guitar
a well respected man
just like the dandy that you are


its sandwiches and cake and death
a blackbird at my feet
we sneak another shot below
the arms of your old tree
see you lean against the window
morning coffee, its july
its so much harder to get up
when you wanna die
it wasnt me
it wasnt me
below your tree
a memory for everyone
a thank you in between
and a blackbird at my feet

they said it's rude of us to go
and leave the urn back in the car
while having sandwiches and cake and death and smoke in the front yard
there was still a pink post it on that urn
that said your name
god i really didn't wanna see you
die that way

they make you feel like shit for choosing the cheapest cake with every bite
they nod and smile and piss you off
while there's other wars to fight
cause you i promised a renaissance
all you got was different walls
its the same flimsy haven
i have built you years before

i will always keep on wondering
what part of me is you
and wonder can i love that part
would that make me love you too

or cut it out and and bury deep
by the tree next to your name
see i really didn't wanna see you go that way
i really didn’t wanna see you go that way

i promise to remember
an not to sound too much like you
but when i cry and when i sing
i know i do
i know i do
