A single crystal tear upon a silver-tinted lip
- why do I have to be so eloquent?
There's been a death in the family
A death in the family
There's been a death in the family
...and a little sadness too
Flowers in a vase
We've both seen better days
- once again I curse my irreverence
There's been a death in the family
A death in the family
I'm too old for teenage angst to cry
And screaming doesn't help
So I'll just sit here and practice what to say
"Why is it always the best ones?" I say
"always the best ones"
"Why is it always the best ones",
and it's still not me
"Why is it always the best ones",
and it's still not me
Among the blessed ones
- would you like a cup of tea?
