The Quill - White Casket Lyrics

Wake up, please wake up
The boy cries out as he lies face down
His tear drops soak into the clouds
And then it rains down onto the funeral grounds
In his head she's still sleeping on the couch
I exhausted my options
I didn't sign up to be rotten
I might as well have led the squadron
Call it white guilt or whatever you wanna call it
How could you not be guilty when this shit is so common your honor
Your thoughts and prayers will never heal a bullet wound
If there's a plug I really hope that someone pull it soon
I'm a kingpin in a world of crooked goons
When I look at you, all I see is pain I put you through
Remember when I saw God for the very first time
Her black skin was more than divine
She was seven years old with bullet holes in her spine
I can't get it out of my mind, shit like

Ooh no warning
Who the hell's gonna pay for my fortune
Lord have mercy the wood is warping
Teardrop rainbows beautiful mourning

Try to hide the truth but there's too much to doubt
Look it in the face I'm freaking out
I was eating popsicles, dripping on the couch
While Aiyana's on the sofa bleeding out
Try to hide the truth but there's too much to doubt
Look it in the face I'm freaking out
I was eating popsicles, dripping on the couch
While Aiyana's on the sofa bleeding out

Look, pain drops pouring onto the coffin until the
Wood finish starts turning and tossing and the
Flower fragrance overwhelming as the smell grew
What happened next you won't believe me if I tell you
The casket starts stirring lurching and bursting
Wood cracking planks squirming
It sprouts vast wings, flapping and curling
It grows claws makes the earth and the dirt flee
Loud creaking as the wood morphs into scales
Mountains bow as it raises it's tail
It rears it's dragon head and roars inhales
It bores it's teeth and soars and flails
On its back is a girl in a pink dress
The spirit of Aiyana in its clear crest
Fly into the sky where there's no bloodshed
Into the white clouds and the pink sunset like

Ooh no warning
Who the hell's gonna pay for my fortune
Lord have mercy the wood is warping
Teardrop rainbows beautiful mourning

Try to hide the truth but there's too much to doubt
Look it in the face I'm freaking out
I was eating popsicles, dripping on the couch
While Aiyana's on the sofa bleeding out yeah
Why do the good die young
Maybe God wants to meet them sooner
Maybe we're all living inside a computer
Like it's a simulation, we're stuck inside
And whoever's on the other side is waiting til we get it right
