Five Iron Frenzy Album: Electric Boogaloo Track: Eulogy
Eulogy Lyrics
Today all the sources would agree
That the day of their death was a cold dark day
Scuttled ships have blocked the sea
And the pallid light of morning melts into an ashy gray
Chorus:
And goodbye to everything
Sayonara everyone
They are tired
Write the eulogy
And I saw them as they passed
It was like a millstone cast
Far into the deep blue sea
No one understood a word they said
Hailed them all as kings up upon a pedestal
Their names scribbled on a parchment piece
Would sink like any ship listing fast from ruptured hull
The murky sea is black
Dismal and so deep
Millstones rocket through the dark
Into it's icy keep
A resting place for broken ships
A cemetery for the humble
No one's here to make you stumble
If Jesus Christ is true
Then I am mostly lies
If Jesus Christ is Love
Then I have failed to try
If Jesus Christ is Life
Then please just let me die
Let...this...die...
