How to Survive a Funeral Lyrics

Through a combination of alcohol and the chemicals you'd consumed, laid a broken path before a stoic man
The stars became your roof
So be proud, be proud, this is your big debut kid
So be proud, be proud, you've got a crowd to see you through this

Set the stage, displayed you laid there cold
Then came the eulogies
I thought you'd like to know, you barely knew us
You were out of touch, out of touch for so long
You filled the room up, and none of us knew we cared 'til you're gone

Be proud, be proud, this is your big debut kid
So Be proud, be proud, we got a crowd to see you through this
They found you face down on the floor
You were somebody else the night before
Another slip up. Another fall
You'd be searching your soul for something more
Fuck

You barely knew us
You were out of touch, out of touch for so long
You filled the room up, and none of us knew we cared 'til you're gone

The funeral was in full bloom
You always knew how to fill a room
The funeral was in full bloom to send you home
And while the crowd remained composed they put a trophy on your stone
I guess you found a place to rest those bones
And while the crowd remained composed they put a crown upon your throne
I guess you found a place to rest those bones

You barely knew us. You were out of touch, out of touch for so long
You filled the room up and none of us knew we cared 'til you're gone
And everyone came in colours, everyone came in colours
