mourning song - serpentwithfeet

I am so embarrassed

My voice is far too deep

It’s buried in the ground

Sound like the demon

The demon needed me to be

Now you know it to be found

What’ll be, be, be, mourned

I am so embarrassed

Shadows layer the corners of my smile

They will not go away

It’s too much work

To be the monster and miss you too

Why didn’t you just stay?

I’m annoyed with clothes today

I’d rather swaddle myself in sorrow today

I don’t want to be small, small, sad

I want to be big, big, sad

I want to make a pageant of my grief

Cut out our better half and carry your side everywhere with me

Yes I do, yes I do

I’m not through you yet, I’m never through you again

I’m sure my friends are tired of me talking about you

But it’s a gift, it’s a gift to miss you

What kinda lover would I be

If i didn’t properly grieve?

I’ll miss you, I miss you

What’ll be, be, be, mourned
