I'm sweating in my black dress
Too warm for funerals
My cousins stand around
Smoking cigarettes, fuming in the face of death
Same earth that welcomed me home
Covered up with astro turf, perfect for a burial
Uncomfortably close
I should be sleeping right now but I'm not
And I can see ??? stumbling down the track
At the back of my eyes
I should be sleeping right now but I'm not
And I still see ??? stumbling down the track
At the back of my eyes
You were a day sleeper, still it's different now that you've gone
You were a day sleeper, new silence filling the house
We don't laugh at funerals
Sometimes I guess, I guess we don't know how to act
Impropriety sneaking in between the cracks
I feel a bench at my back
Snap back into it, remember I was so sad
I should be sleeping right now but I'm not
And I can see ??? stumbling down the track
At the back of my eyes
I should be sleeping right now but I'm not
And I still see ??? stumbling down the track
At the back of my eyes
You were a day sleeper, still it's different now that you've gone
You were a day sleeper, new silence filling the house
We don't laugh at funerals
