Funeral Parade of Roses

Found you drown in the museum
Looking at pictures of lungs
Side by side with a distance
Not sure how it'll ends

Salt air trying to catch your breathe
Holding onto one side of nose
Sitting on the beach of Dover
The sunset got you mesmerized

The glow of the lantern
Shining on the hall of fame
Two papers to enter the place
Forgot that one person coming along

Now I'm just going on about the memories
Not sure how that one girl ended up here
Guess she takes the crown
And I'm getting down

See her on every story
Along with the same story
Guess she takes the crown
For being your best sweetheart

You celebrate her like it's your birthday
Gave her all the awards
Cherish her like a trophy
Not once thinking about how I'm doing

You said it was platonic
Cause "a man shall not lay with a man"
But you shouldn't have stuck your tongue
Down my throat like a lovebird

Guess I'm celebrating on my own
Bought myself a pack of roses
Lay on top of a tapestry
Celebrating the funeral of my heartbeat
