I see you Fading in Floating out Startled silence Laying on the ground Shooting through the sky You never said goodbye Only said hello Smiled when you wanted to die Why didn't you cry when you still had the time? Henry's in the sky, diamonds by his side Always said they were a man's best friend Followed him to the very end Where the flesh becomes dust And the dust becomes earth again Every Sunday I feel your energy Spread across the pews I look for your touch Shiver once I've found you A ghost that no one knows Death in the absence of memory Wanted you but I lost you and now You're in the sky, diamonds by your side Suicidal lullaby Always said the breadth of song Would make the days grow long But all I feel is the shortness of breath From the thought of someone gone Now in the gravity of night I wonder what you'd do Now, in the gravity of night I hold onto someone new

in the sky with diamonds
I see you Fading in Floating out Startled silence Laying on the ground Shooting through the sky You never said goodbye Only said hello Smiled when you wanted to die Why didn't you cry when you still had the time? Henry's in the sky, diamonds by his side Always said they were a man's best friend Followed him to the very end Where the flesh becomes dust And the dust becomes earth again Every Sunday I feel your energy Spread across the pews I look for your touch Shiver once I've found you A ghost that no one knows Death in the absence of memory Wanted you but I lost you and now You're in the sky, diamonds by your side Suicidal lullaby Always said the breadth of song Would make the days grow long But all I feel is the shortness of breath From the thought of someone gone Now in the gravity of night I wonder what you'd do Now, in the gravity of night I hold onto someone new
