When the time comes for marriages to end
When all the black gowns are called and sent
To darken doors, to pay them penance
For wishing death before their contracts ended
When all the black gowns are hirin'
Art does the suffering
They don't see the beauty on the power wires
Or of the honest man in poor attire
But I've heard of hope in the faceless men you know you'll never meet
I've heard of life in those who love so very effortlessly
Who live forever in a state of vulnerability
To leave behind for those they've loved a lot of time to weep
ย
When the time comes for marriages to end
Will the world wait while we address?
With poignancy enough to drown the trial at hand
Speaking humanly enough to free us from ourselves
Abandonment makes for something heartfelt
And finds your ear like chimes and church bells
Something special will recede as something boring swells
And finds your ears like chimes and church bells
I've heard of hope in the faceless men you know I'll never meet
I've heard of life in those who love so very effortlessly
Who live forever in a state of vulnerability
To leave behind for those they've loved a lot of time to weep
