Pallbearer

She left me in the darkness all alone She abandoned all the good times And the love I thought we had I'm like a lonesome pallbearer, walkin' down the aisle Travellin' to the graveyard, countin' down the miles With earth-filled shovel, they dig that eternal bed I'm like a lonesome pallbearer, carrying the dead Carrying the dead She don't call me and she don't try to And my praying can't bring her back My eyes are wide open watching my future fade to black I'm like a lonesome pallbearer, walkin' down the aisle Travellin' to the graveyard, countin' down the miles With earth-filled shovel, they dig that eternal bed I'm like a lonesome pallbearer, carrying the dead Carrying the dead I've pondered trading places with the man layin' in that herse I try to hold my head up but her leavin' is like a curse I'm like a lonesome pallbearer, walkin' down the aisle Travellin' to the graveyard, countin' down the miles With earth-filled shovel, they dig that eternal bed I'm like a lonesome pallbearer, carrying the dead Carrying the dead Carrying the dead
