Did you take a look at her face?
Did you notice her smile?
Oh, she hasn’t looked quite that way
in quite some while.
She was laughing as she
was making her grand descent.
Maybe she soared, or maybe
her skull didn’t notice the dent.
In the real world you live in,
the water has turned rosy red.
Up here, it is still so clear,
where you saw tragedy, she saw peace instead.

You can hold her close
before she’s put to rest.
They’ll pamper her up
as she’ll look her best.
Do yourself a favor
as you face the rain above.
Know that this was
not an act of hate, but out of love.
Like her memory,
she’ll start to corrode.
Then you will forget
that you’ve been widowed.

After the storm, the family leaves,
everyone starts feeling ill.
The girl is following you
but you can’t feel her deathly chill.
She watches you weep,
but that’s only for now.
In a few days, she knows
you’ll feel better somehow.
Doesn’t matter if you
cry a puddle or an entire river.
You are free now,
there’s that other girl, go be with her.

You can hold me close
before I’m put to rest.
They’ll pamper me up
so to look my best.
Do yourself a favor
as you face the rain above.
Know that this was
not an act of hate, but out of love.
Like my memory,
I’ll start to corrode.
Then you will forget
that you’ve been widowed.

The wedding bells have rung.
The choirs have sung.
A new life for you has just begun.
In a row, with her long ears,
there sits my dolly you’ve held onto for years.
I watch through her eyes,
and I see that final kiss.
The widower is gone,
and all I have to say is this,
I’m done my job here and you are in bliss.
So I've been having weird dreams lately. If you want me to sum up the song, it's about a girl who offs herself (if you want to be specific, I tried to illustrate her head being hit by a rock in a river) for someone she likes for him to go out with someone else. Although she can't much interact with the world of the living, the dead girl wants to assure the boy that the girl he likes will make him forget she had even existed.
