Beautiful in the dress I laid out for you
Let your down the way you always used to
The tile's cold,
The tap is dripping
As I go to rinse my hands of you,
And watch the pieces one by one wash away down the drain
I'll fake this morning at your funeral
Dressed in black and trying not to laugh

[Chorus:]
Sit tight my dear
This'll be your last night here
Breathing among the living
I've got some plans for you
Sweet dreams my love
It'll all be over soon
I'm waiting for the poison in your blood
To freeze your heart

So cold and bare laid out before me
So we can pray quiet as can be
Peacefully sleeping for all of eternity
No one will ever suspect me
Fingerprints and DNA won't give me away
I'll fake this morning at your funeral
Dressed in black and trying not to laugh

[Chorus]

I brought your favorite flowers
Your mother said you would have loved them
I'll read your favorite poem out load
And I'll break down,
I'll break down
You said I don't feel
That's why you could not be with me
I don't feel the least bit sad right now,
How's that for irony?
I'll fake this morning at your funeral
Dressed in black and trying not to laugh¦
¦I can't help but laugh

[Chorus]
