The Funeral
Band of Horses Lyrics
I'm coming up only to hold you under
I'm coming up only to show you wrong
And to know you is hard, we wonder
To know you, all wrong we were
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
Really too late to call, so
We wait for
To know me as hardly golden
Is to know me all wrong, they were
At every occasion, I'll be ready for the funeral
Every occasion, once more, it's called the funeral
Every occasion, know I'm ready for the funeral
Every occasion, oh, one billion-day funeral
I'm coming up only to show you down, for
I'm coming up only to show you wrong
To the outside the dead leaves, they're on the lawn
Before they died, had trees to hang their hope
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
At every occasion, I'll be ready for the funeral
Every occasion, once more, it's called the funeral
Every occasion, know I'm ready for the funeral
Every occasion, oh, one billion-day funeral

An earlier version of the song appeared on the band's self-titled EP, under the name 'Billion Day Funeral'. The heavy subject meaning behind the song's lyrics relate to the multiple abortions that various girlfriends of singer Ben Bridwell had to receive during his years living in Seattle.
The Music Video for The Funeral seems to tell the story of a man whose dog has died, and saddened by this he drowns his sorrow in alcohol. Afterwards he drives under the influence and the end of the music video seems to suggest he crashes head on into another vehicle. Based on the style other cars and the elevated railroad overhead, the video appears to be set in 1970s New York or Chicago (more likely the latter as one scene in the video shows a sign for the Galway Bay Bar, an Irish pub located in the Lincoln Park neighbourhood).

Hi everyone from HIMYM
I'm coming up only to hold you under
I'm coming up only to show you wrong
And to know you is hard, we wonder
To know you, all wrong we were
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
Really too late to call, so
We wait for
Morning to wake you, that's all we got
To know me as hardly golden
Is to know me all wrong, they were
At every occasion, I'll be ready for the funeral
Every occasion, once more, it's called the funeral
Every occasion, know I'm ready for the funeral
Every occasion, oh, one billion-day funeral
I'm coming up only to show you down, for
I'm coming up only to show you wrong
To the outside the dead leaves, they're on the lawn
Before they died, had trees to hang their hope
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
At every occasion, I'll be ready for the funeral
Every occasion, once more, it's called the funeral
Every occasion, know I'm ready for the funeral
Every occasion, oh, one billion-day funeral

My girlfriend passed away far too early this sunday after a caraccident. I sat with her and Held her hand in the hospital while she was deeply unconsious talking to her, hugging and kissing her hand telling her everything was going to be alright but the injuries on her brain was to severe and eventually it was time to remove the assisted breathing and machines that helped keep her alive the final hours. She was only 20 years old and the most beautiful person ive ever known and ever will know.
Prior to this i did not have any beliefs but now i am a hundred percent sure that there is life after death and that she is looking down on me from the sky smiling and happy.
I will never ever forget you and from now on i will live my life for two, for the both of us and make you proud.
Forever yours
