Funeral Fit

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I ironed my black dress Got a veil in the car Pearls on my neck Like a dare from afar Lip gloss shining hard On a face that don’t grieve I came with a smile And a plan to leave You asked if I’m okay I said, “Baby, I’m dressed” For the tears in the room And the mess in your chest [Pre-Chorus] Hand on the handle Heart in a spin Everybody’s watching Let the church bells in I wore my goodbye Like a sharp little chain If you want my silence You can keep the pain [Chorus] Dressed for the funeral Dressed for the funeral I came looking fine For the end of us, too Dressed for the funeral Dressed for the funeral If love’s in the ground Let me dance right through [Verse 2] You loved what I gave you Then you buried my name Put me in a small box And called it a flame Now I’m stepping in slow With my chin held high Black shoes on the tile And a fire in my eyes All your pretty excuses Can lie in the aisle I’m not here to cry I’m here for my smile [Pre-Chorus] Hand on the handle Heart in a spin Everybody’s watching Let the church bells in I wore my goodbye Like a sharp little chain If you want my silence You can keep the pain [Chorus] Dressed for the funeral Dressed for the funeral I came looking fine For the end of us, too Dressed for the funeral Dressed for the funeral If love’s in the ground Let me dance right through [Bridge] Lower the roses Fold up the lies I learned how to leave With these same two eyes No need for a mourner No need for a prayer I buried that version Of me over there [Chorus] Dressed for the funeral Dressed for the funeral I came looking fine For the end of us, too Dressed for the funeral Dressed for the funeral If love’s in the ground Let me dance right through
