jay clayton - funeral concept album track 2 lyrics

Loading...

a funeral held at great expense for the few who found the time
a gathering of colleagues and neighbours
no friends or family ties
no one to say a few words
no one to share their bereavement
just a priest who didn’t know me
who lists my empty achievements

oh what a waste of time
my solitary life
wake does not last for long

i follow my wife home
she eats the food that was wasted
and puts thе meat aside in a bowl for the dog
shе puts the wine back in the cases
and then she makes a phone call to her mum

she tells her mother of her guilt for her lack of grief
for when the news sank in she only felt relief
my sick mind became too much
she was scared by what i’d say
that she would leave
i’d take my life
and she would face the blame
better that i drowned
now you’re not scared
better that i’m not around

i float upstairs
the dog scampers up behind me
staring and whimpering at my face
my sad and reclusive nature, they chose to defy me
the dog just sees a spectre it can chase

it looks like you won’t settle down until you follow me all around the house
it looks like you won’t settle down until you follow me all around the house
