they will bury a woman by Rainyholmes

Doesn't matter how my moments were defined

Doesn’t matter how I fought to stay alive

Doesn't matter what I had to sacrifice

If it was hard to see for you

.

And all my dreams, and all my fears

And all my friends, and all my tears

And all the years I spent sincere

You'll read the eulogy

.

And you’ll tell them just how effortless I lived then

And you'll fill in all the gaps where you were missing

And you'll mourn me in your story

Just like you mourned me to my face

And then you'll tеll them that I miss you

And you won't even say my namе

.

When I die, they will bury me a woman

While I lie still and restless

Breaking silent in my casket

Let me rest inside your peace, in your memory

Perfectly positioned how you wanted me

'Cause once you bury me

.

They will ignore all I was

'Cause they never listened

They will betray every wish

'Cause I couldn’t say them

When they search my clothes for outfits

They’ll just go buy a dress instead

Because there's no time left to meet me

They’ll mourn the person in their head

.

When I die, they will bury me a woman

While I cry, mad and helpless

Wishing miracles would listen

No one needs to know what you'll leave below

Who will I end up? Will I ever know?

'Cause once you bury me, you can forget me

.

When I die, they will bury me a woman

While I lie still and restless

Breaking silent in my casket

Let me rest inside your peace, in your memory

Perfectly positioned how you wanted me

'Cause once you bury me, I’ll be complete

Eternally a resting stranger

.

I'll die a vague recollection

I'll die awkward conversation

I'll die what you can't remember

I'll die as a resting stranger

I'll die, all my things in trash bags

I'll die with an urn of dyed ash

I'll die, hundred unfinished plans

I'll die anything but a man

I'll lie where the council say so

I'll lie several miles from home

I'll lie under dirt overgrown

I'll lie with a name I don't know

I'll sit beside a corpse I've never seen before

And I'll mourn how I'm dead inside your dreams

And I'll be dead to all I was
