Hello, Funeral (lyrics) by Danny WashingtonYou were always going to be, an early end to me
That was the danger that I faced
When I woke up and saw you staring back at me
It's so easy to resist, as anyone can see
All that I want to know is that
You'll be there waving when I need to leave
And the standing in the place that I once craved
But now I need to go away
All the people can see, just what you did to me
They won't judge you or forgive
It's me that has to do the damage
Make them see that I won't miss them
'Till the day we're reunited
And as the choir sings, and the doubtful fill my mind
I won't be mournful or regretful
I will take it as I found it
And leave with all the grace
That I can summon up with what I'm lacking
I have you're promise, you will attend my funeral
I don't need you're word, that you will be my cause of death 12/07/2008 Author's Note: Lyrics to the title track of my new album. Demo on my myspace http://www.myspace.com/dwacoustic
