about

This is a song about honoring and paying respects to the image and aspirations you had for yourself as a young person so that you can take the next step of your life's journey. Ultimately you must grieve and bid farewell to the person that you pictured yourself as to discover the truth of who you really are, and the power of who you have yet to become.

lyrics

Lemme tell you about a guy I knew
Used to be a friend of mine

He was a good old boy from the good old days
He was a stubborn old bird set in his ways
He was a flower child in a patch of weeds
A tough nut to crack in a row of bad seeds

Do you have any final words
Before the last handful of dirt
But the penultimate surprise
there’s nothing left to eulogize

Disjointed…appointed
simalcrum of simalcrumbum
Kettle calling kettle
Black as black no turning back
Annoyed android
Clone of a clone, a drone’s drone
All your life you’ve been waiting to
Fill in this hole with this jellied soul


Funeral for an imaginary Rabbit

Innocence lost was piece by piece
That’s how the gentle sweet pet became the Slouching Beast
Now the call of the night he can’t resist
How to prove a point to someone who don’t exist

Caught in a trap
there's no turning back
carrots dangling
we all want the same thing??

Rabbit Reborn
Bunny born again

Once young, once dumb, the son is ever your fulcrum, must die, goodbye, time to lay to rest the little guy

Where was his promise all squandered in the street
No hero’s journey in his pride and conceit
A looping line now that the course was ran
He’s ending up almost where he began oh yea

Funeral for an imaginary rabbit
