Bent Knee
Funeral
I will not attend your funeral
I will not be there to morn
I do not like the smell of flowers
I do not like the weight of dark flowers

Look what love does to me

I will not attend your funeral
I will not worship your bones
I do not like you when your hands are cold
I do not like you when your eyes are closed

Look what love does to me

I will not accept your betrayal
I will not be left alone
How could I go on without you
You are my creator aren’t you

Aren’t you, you are my creator aren’t you
Aren’t you, you’re the one that teaches me aren’t you
Aren’t you, you’re the one that guides me aren’t you
Aren’t you, you’re the one that guards me aren’t you
Aren’t you, you’re the one that loves me aren’t you
Aren’t you, you’re the one that saves me aren’t you
So please, don’t let me know when you die
(‘cause I don’t want to know)
And I’ll keep writing to you now and then
(just like I always do)
I’ll be upset when you don’t respond
And I...
