No Funerals


Now we're stuck in our own minds
Every sadness undefined
Always hanging on the line
Kept apart in little rooms

We retreat within ourselves
Lost and feeling overwhelmed
No one hears us beg for help
When the end arrives too soon

Everybody leaves, but there's nowhere we can grieve
With no funerals, no funerals

With no place to congregate
Silence echoes in the wake
There's no shelter from our pain
Drawn apart in our concern

If this life is switching tense
Will the rest make any sense?
Killing time until it's spent
Watching every candle burn

Everybody leaves, but there's nowhere we can grieve
With no funerals, no funerals

Can our passions be renewed?
We're all phantoms passing through
Only shadows in the night
Tributes hiding from the light

Well there isn't much to say
Though we're only parting ways
It's much stranger than you know
Coming back after they go

With no funerals, no funerals
No funerals, no funerals
