Funeral Seats

[Verse 1]
If today’s the last day
I’ve got one small fear
Will the ones I hurt the most
Come and stand down here

I wore my pride like armor
Let the kind words slip
Left some doors half-open
With my hand still on the grip

[Pre-Chorus]
And I know I was heavy
Hard to hold and hard to love
Now the room feels colder
When I look up above

[Chorus]
Will you take a seat?
Will you say my name?
Will you come through the rain?
Will you take a seat?
At the front where the truth stays plain
Where the hard things finally land
Will you take a seat?
Will any of the hearts I broke be there?

[Verse 2]
There’s a suit in the closet
And a ring on the shelf
Little signs of a good man
I kept missing myself

Mama kept her questions
Soft as folded rain
I gave her my excuses
She gave me her pain

[Pre-Chorus]
And I know I was careless
With the tender and the kind
If I had one more morning
I’d go back and make it right

[Chorus]
Will you take a seat?
Will you say my name?
Will you come through the rain?
Will you take a seat?
At the front where the truth stays plain
Where the hard things finally land
Will you take a seat?
Will any of the hearts I broke be there?

[Bridge]
If the flowers line the doorway
If the choir starts low
If my hands are empty
What do I still owe?

I don’t need forgiveness
I just need to know
Did I leave a bruise on you
That still won’t go?

[Chorus]
Will you take a seat?
Will you say my name?
Will you come through the rain?
Will you take a seat?
At the front where the truth stays plain
Where the hard things finally land
Will you take a seat?
Will any of the hearts I broke be there?

[Outro]
If today’s the last day
Let me hear it clear
If I broke your heart before
I hope you’re still here
