Song for the Dead

Pale blue gown
I'm barely dressed
Ticking bomb
Beats in my chest
If I explode in a burst of red
Promise me you'll sing a song for the dead
And burn my bones

Black half moons
Under my eyes
Tangled up
Catheter lines
If I don't rise from this spiderweb
Promise me you'll sing a song for the dead
And burn my bones

Long black robe
Can't see your face
Tender voice
Scythe out of place
If I don't wake from this hospital bed
Promise me you'll sing a song for the dead
And burn my bones
