City and Colour - Body In A Box [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
There's a funeral procession on the highway
Traffic screeches to a halt
There's people searching for a better way
To live their lives, oh oh
"Johnny lived a good life" you'll hear them say
As tears of sadness soak the ground
The reaper crept in took his breath away
In the middle of the night, oh oh

[Chorus]
We celebrate the lives of the dead
It's like a man's best party only happens when he dies
We gather round to pay our respects
While their souls are still searching for the light
Searching for the light

[Verse 2]
So please don't come to me on my dying day
Just let me go in peace
With all the things that I forgot to say
Racing through my mind, oh oh
And don't you bury me six-feet underground
Just burn my body in a box
And let my ashes blow with the wind
Out into the night sky

[Chorus]
