Funeral Masses

<br>Dearly beloved,<br>We`re gathered here to mourn,<br>The death of the young one,<br>The death of your first born.<br>And he tried, tried to understand,<br>Why his lungs gave out.<br>His last dying words went out from them.<br><br>It isn`t enough,<br>For your family.<br>It isn`t enough,<br>For your father.<br>But is it enough,<br>To break your spirits.<br>And he`s breaking,<br>Like a thousand windows.<br>But he`s on the pane,<br>That keeps the glass from hitting the floor.<br><br>He`s the kind of guy you wish would just leave.<br>He wears his heart on his sleeve.<br>You won`t see any pictures,<br>With the whole family.<br>He doesn`t wait, he just goes,<br>Out of control, he broke the cop`s nose.<br>A man who can kill,<br>Two stones with one bird.<br><br>Please step back from that highway.<br>Don`t you see it goes my way.<br>Please step back from that highway.<br><br>If you`re number eight,<br>Then he`s number nine.<br>It adds up half the time.<br>A teller with no fortune.<br>But he lucked out just fine.<br><br>I once was told,<br>That white gold,<br>Looks so pretty on your skin.<br>The jewelery, which covers up,<br>All the rusting within.<br><br>Please step back from that highway.<br>Don`t you see it goes my way.<br>Please step back from that highway.<br><br>It isn`t enough,<br>For your family.<br>It isn`t enough,<br>For your father.<br>But is it enough,<br>To break your spirits.<br>He`s kind of like the wind,<br>You can`t see it, but you feel it.<br>And that`s the only way,<br>You know he`s there.<br>And how can you leave,<br>A place you`ve never been to.<br>Or runaway from something,<br>Thats not chasing,<br>And it never was.<br><br>Please step back from that highway.<br>Don`t you see it goes my way.<br>Please step back from that highway.
