The Funeral - Band of Horses
I'm coming up only to hold you under

And coming up only to show you wrong

And to know you is hard; we wonder...

To know you all wrong; we warn.

Ooooooooh Oooooooooh

Ooooooooh Oooooooooh

Really too late to call,

So we wait for; morning to wake you

Is all we got

To know me as hardly golden

Is to know me all wrong, they warn.

At every occasion, I'll be ready for the funeral

At every occasion, once more, it's called the funeral

At every occasion, oh, I'm ready for the funeral

At every occasion, oh, one billion day funeral

I'm coming up only to show you down for

And coming up only to show you wrong.

To the outside: the dead leaves lay on the lawn

For they don't have trees to hang their own.

Ooooooooh Oooooooooh

Ooooooooh Oooooooooh

At every occasion

I'll be ready for the funeral

At every occasion once more

It's called the funeral

At every occasion

Oh, I'm ready for the funeral

Every occasion

Of one billion day funeral

there's something about this song. I don't know what it is, but it's relaxing and saddening and therapeutic all in one. I was baking today and I listened to a wide variety of songs (listed on the bottom) and it was so wonderful. this being one of them. when listening to this song I think about death. about it's suddenness, how it creeps up on some, and how tragic it is for others. but I also think of how beautiful it is for some. I don't know why I felt the need to write about it today, but I did. so yes, that's how I feel about this song. beauty + sadness = thought provoking words.
