Going To Your Funeral, Pt. 1 Lyrics

Going to your funeral and feeling i could scream 

 Everything goes away

 Driving down the highway through the perfect sunny dream

 A perfect day for perfect pain

 

 Look at all the people with the flowers in their hands

 They put the flower on the box

 That's holding all the sand that was

 That was once

 That was once

 You

 

 Honolulu hurricane 

 I knew that you were not insane

 Living in the insane world

 Smiling like it's no big deal

 Scabby wounds that never heal

 The woman was only a girl

 

 Look at all the people with their heads down in their hands

 When everything i'm feeling makes it hard to understand

 That, uh,

 What i need to miss

 It's what i need to miss

 Is you

 

 Going to your funeral and i'm feeling like a fool

 No one's gonna take the blame

 Thinking about the days of hanging out behind the school

 Everything goes away
