Music for the Recently Bereaved

Tonight rains for us only
For the sick and the lonely
For the hollow and broken
The firmament tears

Tonight rains for (us only)
The giving (absolving guilt)
Providing a mask (to disguise)
The depravity we seek

When she became all that she became there was nothing left to recognise

The emptiness kills so she fucked herself dry
And could no longer try to feel anything inside
A black and white still of the actress at night
Captured in monochrome (monochrome) for the theatre wall

The emptiness kills so she fucked herself dry
And could no longer try to feel anything inside
A black and white still of the actress at night
Captured in monochrome (monochrome)

The mirror can not reflect the beauty she expects
And there is nothing left to lose or to gain in the end

When she became all that she became there was nothing left to recognise
When she became all that she became there was nothing left to recognise
(There is no-one left to remember you when I am gone)

[Spoken]
Dead London sighs dense anxiety out of black Westminster lungs full of sickness
A decomposing clammer that infects his every puddle grazed footfall
And the population dreams, safely asleep
