lyrics

MY DEAR DEAD LOVER

Cold coffee still there in the mug.
Notes and bills all scattered on the rug.
The atmosphere is like an airlock.
There's a pipe. And you weren't Sherlock.
Week-old flowers, wilted; loose change on the counter.
One coin for each one of your eyes.

My dear, dead lover,
I'm supposed to say I miss you,
And I wish that I could kiss you,
But that would be a lie.
My dear, dead lover,
Though the fun was undeniable,
You weren't all that reliable.
Though frankly... nor was I.

You had a sense of liberation,
You explored uncharted oceans,
But there's no reincarnation,
And there's treason in emotions.
And isn't that good reason not to cry?

My dear, dead lover,
Now you've gone beyond the curtain,
And I'm feeling pretty certain,
You've made your final bow.

And the sad thing is, I have never felt
As close to you as I do now.
