Eulogy of the Conductor

You tied the cord around your neck
Long before you ran out of breath
You tied the cord around your neck
Long before you ran out of breath

Sit and stare at all you've left behind
Let them see you with your dead eyes
I just wish we'd seen the signs
I just wish we'd seen the signs

Your fall from grace
Blissful and silent
The angels spread their wings in salute
Of those who
Of those who
Have left us here all alone

Farewell dear child the pressure in your chest
Will fade with the sunrise of a new day
Oh gentle earth embrace this lost soul
Give him a chance to find his way home

HA HA HA HA
We will rip out our tongues
And our melodies will bring you to your knees
My beloved we will sing

Blissful and silent blissful and silent
We've been hearing with our ears closed
Help me find me silent way home
Blissful and silent blissful and silent
We've been seeing with our eyes shut
Please help me find my silent way home

Your fall from grace
Blissful and silent
The angels spread their wings in salute
Of those who
Of those who
Have left us here all alone

Your fall from grace contented and silent
A proper movement for the parade of angels
Who were late to a meeting of fidelity
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Spreading broken wings in salute of those
Who have left us behind to tie up the feathers
Hanging from our native superstitions
I hung my notes on this shelf
For the parade
For the parade

The choir longs for it's last note
Our conductor has lain to rest
Oh, oh, oh, oh
The choir longs for it's last note
