The Mortician's Daughter Lyrics

I open my lungs dear
I sing this song at funerals... no rush.
These lyrics heard a thousand times, just plush.
Baby boy you've held so tightly,
This pain it visits almost nightly
Missing hotel beds, I feel your touch.

I will await dear, a patience of eternity, my crush.
A universal still.
No rust.
No dust will ever grow on this frame,
One million years, and I will say your name.
I love you more than I can ever scream.

We booked our flight those years ago,
I said, "I love you, " as I left you.
Regrets still haunt my hollow head,
But I promised you I will see you again, again.

I sit here and smile dear.
I smile because I think of you and I blush.
These bleeding hollow dials... this fuss.
A fuss is made of miles and travels
When roadways are but stones and gravel.
A bleeding heart can conquer every crush.

We booked our flight those years ago
You said you loved me as you left me.
Regrets still haunt your saddened head,
But I promised you that I will see you,
We booked our flight those years ago
I said I loved you as I left you
Regret's no longer in my head,
But I promised you and now
I'm home again, again, again, I'm home again, again, again.

I'm home again.

What is the Meaning of The Mortician's Daughter?

Imagine love so enduring that it defies time, distance, and even the occasional bout of existential angst. This heart-wrenching ballad from Black Veil Brides is a gothic ode to eternal devotion. Our protagonist croons about a love that's stronger than the grave, reminiscing on past promises and flights booked long ago. Despite haunting regrets and nightly pain, there's an unwavering commitment to reunite with his beloved. With poetic flair, he assures us that no rust or dust will ever tarnish this undying affection. In short, it's like Romeo and Juliet got lost in a Tim Burton film but found their way back home—again and again!
