Our Dearly Departed

I lie awake at night
Counting the far off lights
Just to find some peace of mind
I recall the endless pain
Of what it means just to forget
To call your name
And it brings me down
And it brings me down
When I go to be with the dearly departed
Will they welcome me with open arms?
Will I earn my keep walking towards the light?
Or will I need you by my side?
I’ve stumbled through the noise
Under the overgrowth of
Places I’ve been before
And I will close my eys
To be conscious of that thing
That’s ever conscious of m
And it brings me life
And it brings me life
When I go to be with the dearly departed
Will they welcome me with open arms?
Will I earn my keep walking towards the light?
Or will I need you by my side?
