danielle ate the sandwich - honoring the dead lyrics
[verse 1]
pack it all up
tape the boxes
take what you wanted
discard the rest
in a day
in a few hours
everything you kept
will be someone else’s
[chorus]
honoring the dead
[verse 2]
so we say the words
we thought you wanted
the words we couldn’t figure out to say
back when we were young
and actin’ foolish
and findin’ reasons
to keep our distance
[chorus]
honoring the dead
honoring the dead
[verse 3]
so we sang the hymns
that buried our fathers
the words were familiar
and cut through the air
whеn i think of god
his son not sparing
in the graveyard
the birds wеre singin’
[chorus]
honoring the dead
honoring the dead
honoring the dead
honoring the dead
[bridge]
wherever you are now
you would have loved it
we were all gathered
and tellin’ your stories
wherever you are now
whatever they call it
you would have loved it
we sang from hymnals
[verse 4]
so we let you go
as best we could’ve
bouquets of roses and bible verses
and we milled about
the rows of headstones
of all your siblings
the grass was wet
[chorus]
honoring the dead
honoring the dead
honoring the dead
honoring the dead
