Artist: Vienna teng
Song: Say Uncle
Album: Waking Hour
everyone agrees it came too soon
it was only meant to be an interception
you kept fear of death in the back pocket of your jeans
in the palm of your hand, affection
it came like a sudden gust of wind
leaving them bewildered to ask how
i recall last time we met, you said we'd meet again
the irony is only bitter now
these days everyone cries, "say uncle"
for this your sons and widow gather with us at the table
to form a healing circle for our new demise
these days everyone cries, "say uncle"
i retrieve the memories quickly as i can
add them to the portrait we all draw in our minds
your body gone, we shall keep the man
these remnants of a voice and a smile
images of landscape, cloaked in forest green
like your life unfolding mile by mile
a fierce embrace, a word of thanks
a cheerful whistle, and hours in a van
somehow these pieces must bring back the man you were
though the ocean claims your ashes on the sand
these days everyone cries, "say uncle"
for this your sons and widow gather with us at the table
to form a healing circle for our new demise
these days everyone cries, "say uncle"
i retrieve the memories quickly as i can
add them to the portrait we all draw in our minds
your body gone, we shall keep the man
these days everyone cries, "say uncle"
for this your sons and widow gather with us at the table
to form a healing circle for our new demise
these days everyone cries, "say uncle"
i retrieve the memories quickly as i can
add them to the portrait we all draw in our minds
your body gone, we shall keep the man

In the fall, we circle through the leaves
and talk about the little ones.
And we smile, but never say too much.
The moment always vanishing.
