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 by now, but I'm not
And I can see the headlights tumbling down the drive
At the back of my eyes
I should be sleeping by now, but I'm not
And I can see the headlights tumbling down the drive
At the back of my eyes
You were a day sleeper
Still it's different now that you're 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 is 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 by now, but I'm not
And I can see the headlights tumbling down the drive
At the back of my eyes
I should be sleeping by now, but I'm not
And I still see the headlights tumbling down the drive
At the back of my eyes
You were a day sleeper
Still it's different now that you're gone
You were a day sleeper
New silence filling the house
We don't laugh at funerals
