Funeral Singer
by Norma Jean

Album: Wrongdoers

It's been so many years since the first time.
The vultures have been gone for so long.
The past starts again
But now it's all been covered in ash.
Dust yourself off and shine your bones,
Cause we've got a long way to go.

I am the king of "love to hate".
You said we'd be together forever.

I hope my candor doesn't piss you off...
But I wasn't joking.
"Forever" is the last word I want to hear come out of your mouth.

You are unchanged WHY?

No matter how it looks,
I'm just now realizing they look better awake than they ever did asleep.
The pieces are bursting together.
I've been trying for so long to place them.

I am the king of "love to hate".
You said we'd be together forever.

I hope my candor doesn't piss you off...
But I wasn't joking.
"Forever" is the last word I want to hear come out of your mouth.

Circles inside squares,
Sparing and spoiling

And now, I've finally left you
Burning and gasping for life.
You're drowning.
You're drowning...
But you're not you won't.
You are unchanged, why?

Unchanged how?
Unchanged why?
Unchanged how?

This is the only way.
Spit out the candles that keep me away from you.
This is not an invitation, this is my plea...

I want to lay down in the trap you set for me and wait in peace for you.
I'm bleeding from the inside, but nothing can protect myself from you.
I want to lay down next to you and forget the world.
The only people that exist are you and I.

You and I...
You and I...

I want to look you in the eyes and count my blessings.
You are so much more than just my other half.
I'm telling you, right now
I'd sell my soul for you.
