{Verse}
There's a grief-like fear that grows inside
It make sculptures of us all, chiseled faces lined and drawn
And it brings us here with so much inside
And the ocean's we outpour record where every raindrop falls
{Chorus}
Standing waiting for the funeral to begin
In the end it's a day of reckoning
{Verse}
And in all these years I never kept account
Of patient minds that guided me on my way
And if I weighed up the amount
Of love received and given, what would it say?
{Chorus}
Standing waiting for the funeral to begin
In the end it's a day of reckoning
Feeling small as the sacred rites unwind
These are bonds that will hurt to be untied
{Verse}
And the link is broken, the crowd moves on
There's a quiet emotion of bonfires and evening song
Moving slowly with a glance that should say more
As we pause, there's a world beyond these doors
{Chorus}
Standing waiting for the funeral to begin
In the end it's a day of reckoning
Feeling small as the sacred rites unwind
These are bonds that will hurt to be untied
{Outro}
We leave our losses by the side of the road
