Song To Play At Your Funeral?

Marc · 11-19-2007, 07:53 AM

This is due to a long drawn out alcohol induced conversation from Friday night.

So you're dead. What do you want people to hear and remember you by?

THE FLAMING LIPS - Do You Realize?

Do You Realize - that you have the most beautiful face
Do You Realize - we're floating in space -
Do You Realize - that happiness makes you cry
Do You Realize - that everyone you know someday will die

And instead of saying all of your goodbyes - let them know
You realize that life goes fast
It's hard to make the good things last
You realize the sun doesn't go down
It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round

Do You Realize - Oh - Oh - Oh
Do You Realize - that everyone you know
Someday will die -

And instead of saying all of your goodbyes - let them know
You realize that life goes fast
It's hard to make the good things last
You realize the sun doesn't go down
It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round

Do You Realize - that you have the most beautiful face
Do You Realize

What's disturbing is that I've actually put a lot of thought into this.

It would probably be either "Don't Follow" by Alice in Chains or "Breathe" by Pink Floyd.

I don't know how else to put this.
It's taken me so long to do this.
I'm falling asleep and I can't see straight.

My muscles feel like a melee,
My body's curled in a U-shape.
I put on my best, but I'm still afraid.

Propped up by lies and promises.
Saving my place as life forgets.
Maybe it's time I saw the world.

I'm only here for a while.
Patience is not my style,
And I'm so tired that I got to go.

Where am I supposed to hide now?
What am I supposed to do?
Did you really think I wouldn't see this through?

Tell me I should stick around for you.
Tell me I can have it all.
I'm still too tired to care and I got to go.

I get to go home in one week.

But I'm leaving home in three weeks.
They throw me a bone just to pick me dry.

I'm following suit and directions.
I crawl up inside for protection.
I'm told what to do and I dont know why.

I'm over existing in limbo
I'm over the myths and placebos
I dont really mind if I just fade away

I'm ready to live with my family.
I'm ready to die in obscurity
Cause I'm so tired that I got to go.

Where am I supposed to hide now?
What am I supposed to do?
You still don't think I'm gonna see this through?

Tell me I'm a part of history.
Tell me I can have it all.
I'm still too tired to care and I got to go.

I'm still too tired to care and I got to go. (6x)

So how do you pronounce the name of that song?

Cherry-Bomb Productions · 11-19-2007, 09:45 AM

(ZIZZ-ICKS) ??? And I want Adam Davis to play it for me...

Oh yeah,and I want him to do Somewhere out there by Our Lady Peace...

Last time I talked to you,
You were lonely and out of place.

You were looking down on me,
Lost out in space.

Laid underneath the stars,
Strung out and feeling brave.

Watch the riddles glow,
Watch them float away.

Down here in the atmosphere,
Garbage and city lights,
You gotta save your tired soul,
You gotta save our lives.

Turn on the radio,
To find you on sattellite,
Im waiting for the sky to fall,
Im waiting for a sign.

All we are is all so far.

Youre falling back to me,
The star that I cant see.
I know youre out there,
Somewhere out there.

Youre falling out of reach,
Defying gravity,
I know youre out there,
Somewhere out there.

Hope you remember me,
When youre homesick and need a change.
I miss your purple hair,
I miss the way you taste.

I know youll come back someday,
On a bed of nails awake.
Im praying that you dont burn out,
Or fade away.

All we are is all so far

Youre falling back to me,
The star that I cant see.
I know youre out there,
Somewhere out there.

Youre falling out of reach,
Defying gravity,
I know youre out there,
Somewhere out there.

Youre falling back to me,
The star that I cant see.
I know youre out there, oh.
Youre falling out of reach,
Defying gravity....

I know youre out there,
Somewhere out there.

Youre falling back to me,
The star that I cant see.
I know youre out there,
Somewhere out there.

Youre falling out of reach,
Defying gravity,
I know youre out there,
Somewhere out there.

Youre falling back to me.

Well I know,
I know.

Youre falling out of reach.

I know...

"Always with me, always with you"- Joe Satriani. It was mine adn Kelly's wedding song, there are no words just a feeling to the melody.

ssspert · 11-19-2007, 10:09 AM

comfortably numb, pink floyd
because I will no longer feel any pain.

Cherry-Bomb Productions · 11-19-2007, 10:32 AM

4 AM by Our Lady Peace...

I walked around my good intentions
And found that there were none
I blamed my father for the wasted years
We hardly talked
I never thought I would forget this hate
Then a phone call made me realize
Im wrong

If I dont make it known that
Ive loved you all along
Just like the sunny days that
We ignore because
Were all dumb & jaded
And I hope to God I figure out
Whats wrong

I walked around my room
Not thinking
Just sinking in this box
I blame myself for being too much
Like somebody else
I never thought I would just
Bend this way
Then a phone call made me realize
Im wrong
