Bring Out Your Dead

Take a piece
A bouquet of posies
Dried up
It's bound to trip you up
The things you did for love
Heaven sent
(You sitting alone)
Now that you're done
Bring out your dead
You promised nothing would change
(Sing your saddest song)
Now that you're done
Bring out your dead
One try and down comes the rain
(Think, days you were young)
Now that you're done
Bring out your dead
You promised nothing would change
(Think what you should have done)
Now that you're done
Make your peace
A pocket of posies
Can help
In the silence that comes
with the presence of large predators
I washed your scent from my sheets
And still it comes
(You sitting alone)
Now that you're done
Bring out your dead
You promised nothing would change
(Sing your saddest song)
Now that you're done
Bring out your dead
One try and down comes the rain
(Think, days you were young)
Now that you're done
Bring out your dead
You promised nothing would change
(Think what you should have done)
Now that you're done
Bring out your dead
One try and down comes the rain
(You sitting alone)
Now that you're done
Bring out your dead
You promised nothing would change
Sing, now that you're gone gone gone gone
Everybody's staying, waiting for their life to change
Well my life just changed in every way, every day I know
And I just want a greener lawn someday
But maybe I'll rest here for a while
