Wait until they send your son home in a box.
|
See if you're dancing when water is everywhere.
|
Anguish is endless but deaths unambiguous.
|
Wave as it carries him off and pose while it fits you in hospital gowns.
|
Flirt with the men dressed in white.
|
Slip into bed with the fire that consumes our house.
|
Sing on your surveillance tape.
|
Smile in your autopsy photo for once.
|
Phone up the boys that have buried your bones.
|
Where do you get off loving life? As if it's done any of us any good
|
|
You're going to wish you were me when the unsuspecting are dragged to their graves and you're standing on the edge holding a rose.
|
Dead where we stand and you concern yourself with such things as your status and what's in fashion?
|
Don't say you can't be this bothered.
|
Death becomes us all.
|
You've got some never having hope in this ghost town port of call.
|
|
Someday your insides will turn themselves out.
|
Tell me what purpose our efforts have served when we end up in the ground?
|
More acts will follow the roles we have played.
|
Everything loved will expire. I've seen it all and I'm worse off because of it.
|
Good men have died in my arms.
|
I've been everywhere yet we'll end up at the same depth.
|
What's the point?
|
|
You're going to wish you were me when the unsuspecting are dragged to their graves and you're are on the edge holding a rose.
|
You're standing on the edge holding a rose.
|
Don't say you can't be this bothered.
|
Death becomes us all.
|
You've got some nerve having hope in this ghost town port of call.
|
|
There's nothing to see here. And nothing gazes back at me.
|
There's nothing to see here. And that nothing looks back at us.
