L.Mayne - 100 Violins Lyrics

One hundred violins playing at my funeral
What you people crying for?
Save it for my funeral

If life passes by and nothing is immovable
Play a concert with my heart strings and make it beautiful

Play me something sweet - something so Unsuitable
Something far removed, a Distraction from the fact I might be losing you

Listen - what's missing
I just threw the kitchen sink at this but nothings sticking

Flicking through the pages of my diary and
Picking out a list of things I think are worth reliving

I'm Skipping through the suicides - slipping past the ruined minds of you and I
Tripping up and stumbling but f*ck it all I do is try

Then the violins play and they start to cry
You can take it or leave it
All I do is try

I write every day, just to keep the wolves at bay
The fools are hoping any day
I'll pack my things and go away

Nah I'm staying put
Jabbing as I duck the hook
What the f*ck you lookin' at
You dumb or just misunderstood?

I try to lead the blind
Tried to leave it all behind
The type to squeeze the juice from the fruit, before it's even ripe

Need to take my time
Younger years I wasted mine
If I knew then what I knew now
I might have been someone or could of f*cking tried

And Somethings still missing
The absence that's inside of me is driving my ambitions

Prying on my privacy - prior to disasters that inspired me
To master the facade and go about my business quietly

Not everything is what it seems or what it's meant to be
Give it time
I'll have the bigger picture figured out eventually

You ever feel like you ain't never had a purpose
Out of the frying pan and - into the furnace

I'm on the verge of overturning The submergence
Here to rock the boat slowly sinking from the surface

I Stay afloat, tread the water
All In earnest
To Remain the Furthest ripple just a murmur
A slow burner

You couldn't even handle holding the candle
I'm Waxing lyrics as I dismantle these beats like a vandal

In a tangle, just for you to find a carrot to dangle
No distractions as I Ramble on in my inner sanctum

All the people that doubted, I take a second to thank them
I Got more soul in me than Jesus's sandals
Yeah I stay righteous

Not a - flash in the pan, ima play the piper
I heard them say That talk is cheap, what I says priceless

I see the other side
When I dream at night
Woke up one time to find the person from that dream had died

It was my father he decided he should take his life
Not before he said goodbye
With the devil in his eyes

Things money can never buy
Happiness and peace of mind
Reconcile with demons please believe I'll leave it all behind

Now it's feeling far fetched but I'm soul searching
Coz my souls hurting

As I stare into the pit in which they throw dirt in
Should I flinch at the abyss
I think I'll hold firmly
It's been a long journey

You could argue that it Turned me to a cold person
Freeze the strings on this violin concerto

100 violins playing at my funeral
What you crying for?
