All In Your Honor
Your heart took a knife
In exchange for your life
You could not take what life gave
And now, all alone in your
Cold and writhing grave
All bones by now
5 years gone now
Dead and gone
Sing a song
Happy, happy song!
For you
All in your honor
Now that you're a goner
Wander up through the wood and dirt
'Cause I want to know you longer
A stranger no more
A stranger dead at the core
Where your lone unhappiness lay buried
Until the core could not take the weights it carried
Have they lifted now?
Do you sleep sound?
Is there that peace that you found?
Or are you at rest, like us Earthbound?
I wish you the stars, and the water in the well
That you sleep well
The cars, and the cat that never tells
That you sleep well
Sleep well and be gone
