"The Mortician's Daughter" lyrics
"The Mortician's Daughter"
I open my lungs dear
I sing this song at funerals... no rush
These lyrics heard a thousand times, just plush
A baby boy you've held so tightly
This pain it visits almost nightly
Missing hotel beds, I feel your touch
I will await dear
A patience of eternity, my crush
A universal still. No rust
No dust will ever grow on this frame
One million years, and I will say your name
I love you more than I can ever scream
We booked our flight those years ago
I said "I loved you" as I left you
Regrets still haunt my hollow head
But I promised you that I will see you again, again
I sit here and smile dear
I smile because I think of you and I blush
These bleeding hollow dials, this fuss
A fuss is made of miles and travels
Roadways are but stones and gravel
A bleeding heart can conquer every crush
We booked our flight those years ago
You said you loved me as you left me
Regrets still haunt your saddened head
But I promised you that I will see you
We booked our flight those years ago
I said "I loved you" as I left you
Regrets no longer in my head
But I promised you and now I'm home again, again, again
I'm home again, again, again
I'm home again

All Time Low - "Remembering Sunday" He woke up from dreaming and put on his shoes
Started making his way past 2 in the morning
He hasn't been sober for days
Leaning now into the breeze
Remembering Sunday, he falls to his knees...
Framing Hanley - "You Stupid Girl" Feels like the walls are closing in on me
I'm suffocating, I can barely breathe
And you've got me right where you want me
This is the side of you I've never seen
You're not the girl that you...

You Me At Six - "Always Attract" And if it hurts this much,
Then it must be love.
And it's a lottery.
I can't wait to draw your name.
Oh, I'm trying to get to you,
But time isn't on my side.
If the truth's the worst I could do,...
