Lyrics

I dressed up for your funeral
Paid top dollar for these shoes
Spoke a few words in your memory
Syllables unbeknownst to you
I played guitar when courage haunted me
Shared sorrows of joy and pain
Spared the air of all my curses
Knowing you'd 've done the same
But the ghost I feared most
Was the laughter I loathed in anguish
Mercy's made new in the morning
But sometime I just wanna stay in bed
Your ma was proud of her baby
Your father's cheeks worn red from tears
Brothers stood strong enough to honor
One they'd looked up to for all these years
But the ghost I feared most
Was the laughter I loathed in anguish
Mercy's made new in the morning
But sometimes I just wanna stay in bed
The dial of time, she runs ahead
To make a name for all her children
And we succumb to all this striving
As victims yet born to overcome
We are born to overcome
We are born to overcome
We are more than conquerors
In the spotless risen Son
We are born to overcome
We are born to overcome
We are more than conquerors
In the spotless risen Son
The risen Son
Though I may not yet understand
The breadth of days that I have left
I know you see the other side
And you beg me to press ahead
