about

Description:

When a local socialite and hero passes unexpectedly, their best friend offers commentary to them at their grave. A deceptively cheery tune about coping with loss and resentment that doubles as a stream of consciousness that goes from bittersweet to just plain bitter.

lyrics

Lyrics:

Pick it up. Listen.

I still remember everything you told me
Taking the long road never was so lonely
Every echo, every word reminds us
Of all of the sayings and stories you used to guide us

And now we’re left to figure out
How to sort through all this madness,
chaos, rage, and doubt

Da-Na Na Na!
I can see you high above the rest
Even though you’ve sunken down
Da-Na Na Na!
I can feel you lifting my load
From your tiny patch of ground

I have heard tall tales reverently constructed
All for the legend locally known, loved, and trusted
As strange as it felt to live next door to a hero
It’s stranger still to have outlived the days where
you were near and clear, oh

Why have you gone into the dark?
I was the only one who knew you
and you’ve broken me apart.

The pain that feeds on me
is all that’s left of you
Is standing in your shadow the only legacy
that I’ve resigned to?
