Verse 1
Black roses lined the aisle that day,
Rain kept falling from the sky.
My family gathered hand in hand,
To tell my grandma goodbye.
The preacher spoke in a quiet voice,
While tears rolled down our cheeks.
The room was filled with silence…
Until we heard a creak.
The candles started flickering,
The wind pushed through the door.
A chill ran down my spine,
Like never before.
No one moved or said a word,
We all just stared ahead.
The sound was coming from the casket…
That was holding Grandma dead.
Pre-Chorus
One more creak… then another one.
No one dared to breathe.
Every heartbeat echoed louder,
As fear swallowed our grief.
Chorus
The casket slowly opened,
Right there at her funeral.
The room turned cold around us,
Everything felt unusual.
Then Grandma slowly sat upright,
Without a single sound.
She climbed out with empty eyes,
And her feet dragged on the ground.
She walked slower than a snail,
Like time itself stood still.
We caught her before she reached the door…
But I remember that chill.
Verse 2
No one screamed, we couldn’t move,
We were frozen by the sight.
Her face looked pale as moonlight,
Her smile didn’t feel right.
She reached her hand out slowly,
Like she knew us all by name.
But something deep inside my heart
Whispered she wasn’t the same.
The chapel felt so haunted,
Every candle lost its flame.
The flowers started falling,
As someone called her name.
The air grew cold around us,
The walls seemed far away.
It felt like time had stopped itself,
On that heartbreaking day.
Bridge
I wanted to run,
But my feet stayed still.
I wanted to speak,
But the silence killed.
I looked into Grandma’s eyes…
Searching for the love I knew.
But all I saw was endless darkness,
Staring straight back through.
Then she slowly reached toward me,
As tears fell from my face.
I whispered, “Grandma, I miss you…”
Then everything turned to gray.
Final Chorus
The casket slowly opened,
A dream I can’t erase.
A funeral filled with sorrow,
And one unforgettable face.
She walked through all our heartache,
As shadows filled the room.
Then everything disappeared…
Consumed by endless gloom.
Outro
I woke up breathing heavily,
My pillow soaked with tears.
It was only just a nightmare…
But it felt so real, so near.
Sometimes grief returns in dreams,
In ways we can’t explain.
And even after waking up…
The sadness still remains.
