Strum
D-DU-UDU
Farewell  to Ed
 For Ed is dead
 The careless boy
 Laid to rest
 A velvet floor
 To place his head
 An empty bag
 A wooden chest
 Still beautiful  in death
 The moisture fogs  my breath
 Two hundred lowered  eyes
 A hundred mute  goodbyes
 I never thought  your threats would come good
 You never did  what you said you would
 Your mum and dad
 They look so old
 All huddled up
 In an inky cloak
 I’m not surprised
 This room is cold
 It’s empty too
 It’s stinks of floss
 I sat with dad and drank some beer
 We hadn’t spoken since last year
 I took his hand, led him upstairs
 Silently drew his body near
 I couldn’t see, missed you so much
 Missed you so large I had to fuck
 Between your sheets all charred with grief
 The pillows tainted with your dreams
 I didn’t want to stop that fate
 I should’ve said a thousand things
 Yeh, but hey
 Like we agreed
 I will be brave
 I will pour whisky
 On your grave
 Smoke cigarettes
 Amongst the stones
 Sprinkle champagne
 Upon your bones
 If burial restricts your view
 I’ll bring the city here to you
 I’ll pack the river and the clock
 Wrap it into a picnic box
 With golden bows
 And crystal mugs
 My dancing heels
 Will feel the mud
 We’ll disco boogie until the dawn
 I’ll teach the village how to mourn
 My living room
 In future times
 You’re just a face
 Above my fire
 I futile sound
 A distant chime
 I’ll think of this
 And I will cry
 Perhaps I’ll drop my toast
 The sound of shattered glass
 Thought I forgot at last
 Some things just never pass
 Easy to say
 Hard to believe
 There’ll come a day
 That I don’t grieve
 Until the time
 My body leaves
 I will regret
 That you don’t breath
