[The Silver Cord]
[Verse 1]
"Do you still see me even here?"
The silver cord lies on the ground
"And so I'm dead", the young man said
Over the hill, not a wish away
My friends as one all stand aligned
Although their taxis came too late
[Chorus]
There was a rush along the Fulham Road
There was a hush in the Passion Play
[Verse 2]
Such a sense of glowing in the aftermath
Ripe with rich attainments all imagined
Sad misdeeds in disarray, the sore thumb screams aloud
