Would You Come To My Funeral

(album: The Mess We Seem To Make - 2024)

Would you come to my funeral
And mourn the me you never knew
Just cause we loved each other once
Think one night I'll wake up next to you
Be mad if I did or didn't
Then get told at least the effort counts

I can't relate to motherhood
Maybe I'm scared they'll turn out like me
You believed I would never settle down
That's why I called you darling to you
All my parents, they made me scared to love

But would you come to my funeral
There's a seat laid out for you
I couldn't pass without telling you
That I miss you
That I don't want to
That I miss you
That I don't want to
That I miss you

You'll be gone as soon as I get better
We can speak till I'm not sober
Is it why I look forward to sleeping
Is it why I'm sad I'm happy it's over
I wonder if you're still smoking
Just to get a kick out of me

Why'd they always go for someone younger
Once I begin to step away
Did my wisdom hurt a little much
Is their innocence the reason you stay
I wish you would post some more
So I could know if

You would come to my funeral
There's a seat laid out for you
I couldn't pass without telling you
That I miss you
That I don't want to
That I miss you
That I don't want to
That I miss you

I'd ignore you if I had the chance
Like a stranger looking back
But if I knew I was dying
You'd be the first person I'd call

I say I never think of you
But I don't know who I'm lying to
If I only had ten minutes I'd give you it all

If you came to my funeral
There's seat laid out for you
I couldn't pass without telling you
That I miss you
That I don't want to
That I miss you
That I don't want to
That I miss you
That I don't want to
That I miss you
That I don't want to
That I want you
