Old friend

It′s me and you again

And old boyAs me and you rejoice

Yeah, I can't help thinking ′bout the way we joked

In those funeral homes, yeah

I could only hope it was appropriate

So make me laugh

As for my last request

If I don't take it back

Would you ignore my last request?

Oh, would you make me laugh?

As for my last request

Babe, I won't make it back

Yeah, I am sure there′s nothing left

But as a, a reminder

Ready when you find her

I repress the iridescence of a fire

And won′t you mind him?

Steady when you find him

I confess the incandescence of a dying light

Oh-oh, oh-oh

Consume me through the night

Old man

I'm done always abiding by the plan

And old boy

We knew you really never had a choice

But I can′t help thinking 'bout the way we loved

I was cancer then, now I can hardly come to terms

Losing her

So would you make me laugh?

As for my last request

Babe, I won′t make it back

Yeah, I am sure there's nothing left

As a, a reminder

Ready when you find her

I repress the iridescence of a fire

And won′t you mind him?

Steady when you find him

I confess the incandescence of a dying light

Oh-oh, oh-oh

Consume me through the night

Oh-oh, oh-oh (oh)

If I was the king of the thing

Then you could have it all

If you lied and called me your queen

Then you could have the dogs

If I was the swingingest thing

Then you could have a ball

Show me one more effort, boy

You know that I could make it better

If I was the king of the thing

Then you could have it all

If you lied and called me your queen

Then you could have the dogs

And if I was the only thing

You couldn't bear to lose

I'd set fire to the wood

Just so you wouldn′t have to bury me too

A reminder

Ready when you find her

I repress the iridescence of a fire

And won′t you mind him?

Steady when you find him

I confess the incandescence of a dying light

A reminder, ready when you find her

I repress the iridescence of a fire

And won't you mind him?

Steady when you find him

I confess the incandescence of a dying light

Oh-oh, oh-oh

Consume me through the night

Oh-oh, oh-oh

Consume me through the night
