A pain by any other name, is death before it's time is due
You survived and made it through
Still inside the loss is buried deep
With what you went through at the funeral
Don't know how you pushed on, buried your creator
Took good care, such kind care [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/d/devildriver/waiting_for_november.html ]
You look so beautiful at your funeral
Laid out and dressed your best, as your daughter put you to rest
You have such faith in life, can't tell you how many times
You've given me my backbone
Took good care, such kind care
You look so beautiful at your funeral
Laid out and dressed your best, as your daughter put you to rest
[X2]
Waiting for November, trying to make you smile
A birthday shared by two, scorpio child
You look so beautiful at your funeral, laid out and dressed your best
As your daughter put you to rest
[X2]
I think this song is mourning the death and at the same time praising the life of someone very close to dez. Maybe the parent of a friend or relative. Also showing some sympathy for the person that stayed strong through their loss. We've all lost someone that made it seem like we lost a part of ourselves in them, that solid in your life. "you have such faith in life, cant tell how many times you 've given me my backbone" really hits home for me and the loss of my pap. Oo dreega pap! Devildriver is amazing!
