I Was Happy When You Died

In every moment of ambivalence I'd find some comfort in the knowledge That somewhere you may be watching from afar And in time we'll see each other again But for now I'm tightly clinging to an unseen hand That leads me through the dark Praying that it's you Softly singing through the annals of my youth Never one to be dramatic But I knew you'd be unable to depart Without making sure we understood you'd always be around Out of sight And sometimes I still find that hard to sing about We've gotta ask if you could feel it as you left? 'Cause there was laughter from anothеr room A warmth imbued in everyonе you knew And it feels uncomfortable to say it out loud But I was happy when you died When I found out Everyone was full of love and of light Sharing stories of your life And we still speak of you in dulcet tones Every word in homage to the houses you've made homes I wanna know if you could hear it as you left? 'Cause I was laughing from another room Your brevity suffused in me Even though I'm still bereft of how to praise you adequately I hope to God that I still make you I hope to God that I still make you proud Still all I wanna know is why you disappeared Still all I wanna know is why you disappeared
