We stood on the hill above the graveside
Neither daring nor wanting to go
It's so f*cking bright
You're blind
And whiskey comes straight from the bottle
I suppose they all will want dignity
But we're the last two left alive
What happens to you here is forever
Or more like most of the time
An evening satin blouse against a black Hooksett sky
He's 7 and in the grass
There's someone on her mind
But somewhere in that house was Christmas
A victim of the Hollywood life
They say they all want dignity
We might as well let them inside
What happens to us here us forever
No more most of the time
They said we all want dignity
Tell us where we can find
Enough that will last us forever
We can't afford most of the time
We say we all want dignity
But we know damn well that's hard to find
It might take searching forever
But we've got all of the time
