Lyrics
Harsh words spoken
Hearts lie broken
Piled up beside
Voiceless regrets
Eyes fixed upon
Sand in this hourglass
As we breathe
There's no good time
The final mysterious
Unknown experience
No one can write
A book upon
When you go
I want you to know
We'll peel back the carpet
Dust off all the things
Celebrate the day you left us
As the day you came
Like an ex-sickle
This back to life is
The last of your life
We'll take forward
Into our own
When you go
Take that five decade family secret
And beat out the blackened dust
Year after year
Let's hoist the carpet high
Proudly flying
The flags of shame
Taboo and denial
Here they are
Learn from them
Carry them with you
Display and manifest
Your beautiful flaws
When you go
I want you to know
We'll peel back the carpet
Dust off all the things
Celebrate the day you left us
As the day you came
Like an ex-sickle
This back to life is
The last of your life
We'll take forward
Into our own
When you go
When you go
When you go
When you go
When you go
When you go
When you go
