Old people in the cemetery

Of Montreal

Old people in the cemetery 
what must they be thinking of? 
must be frightening must be scary 
to visit the grave of a close friend 
who was the same age as you when they died


There's nothing precious about 
old people in the cemetery 
reciting bible passages 
unprepared to come to terms with 
the fact that we're all food for worms 
what do they think a prayer 
could make a difference now?


There's nothing sadder than 
an old woman in the cemetery 
picking leaves off of her husbands tomb
Knowing that her only wish is 
that she will die and join him soon
It's so sad to see them all just wither away,
there's nothing sadder then old people like that


It must be hard to relate 
after the world of your youth 
totally evaporates 

Old men in the cemetery 
lurking like faint shadows of the dead 
gazing down at mother's plot 
and longing to be there instead 
it's a dreary fate and 
no one should have to be as depressing 
as old people like that
