Proceeds, who’s in?
Who wants a piece of him?
So many articles to choose from
Comrade, artiste
A taste for evidence
Hold on to articles of faith
Once worth nothing that something touches who you want to be
Baggage embodies no one (He is gone)
Intrinsic to only one (He is gone)
Belongings don’t define us
Keepsake, fingerprint, scrapbook, record of death
Funeral, event, everyone’s gonna be there
They have to see you pay respects
Breathe in, breathe out, random, random, random
Who are these fucking idiots?
Come on I’m writing you
I know this role is tearing you apart
Large numbers can’t console you (He is gone)
Don’t let the guilt control you (He is gone)
The anger has consumed you
Ranting, regret, enrage, screaming next…

I think this song is about Joey realizing that people are basically gonna come out of the woodwork to "pay respects" to Derrick simply to get their name out there and to make themselves look good, and he's not happy about that.
Haha yes it is. I think he was really pissed about people who didnt know him too well coming to his funeral it seems, and as he should be! A funeral is a time for loved ones to pay respect. NOT a publicity stunt.
