V6

[Verse 1] I dressed my heart in linen white No flowers, no mourners, no candlelight I dug this grave with my own hands In frozen, unforgiving lands I spoke a name I used to own Now carved in blackened bone Cold crows are circling overhead Singing low for what is dead [Pre-Chorus] And I am standing at the edge Of every broken pledge [Chorus] White funeral, bury me deep What I was, what I couldn't keep Let the snow be my prayer shawl No amen, no one to call White funeral, cold and true I am burying me, not you Take me down, into the ground No cross, no crown [Verse 2] My footprints lead to where I lie No one to blame, no reason why Winter kept what autumn stole A hollow chest, a hollow soul [Bridge] No bells, no tears, no open door Just white on white on white once more If I was winter, let me lie Let the snow be my goodbye [Final Chorus - Wide, Lift, Huge] White funeral, bury me whole Heavy and white, like fallen snow I don't want bloom, I don't want spring Just the silence winter brings White funeral, I am the snow...
