Post Funeral
Hold your breath
Make your peace
This radio has fallen silent
This newsreporter's caught speechless
I don't feel this pain
When I'm not breathing
We just fall apart
For no reason
Seas and oceans open wide
It makes no difference
Side by side or inbetween
It'd still feel like galaxies
Separating you and me
It's time to let go of
Childhood dreams
Because now I see
Breathing in will never be easy
