Evelyn by Effigy of Madness Lyrics

Nineteen forty-seven, the first day of may
She left this world in the most tragic of ways
Fatal inertia, a thousand foot fall
Untimely end for her wounded soul
Over the railing of the floor eighty-six
To be forgotten, to never be missed
Engaged to marry, but never to be
Falling forever, into eternity

Into her coffin, cadillac limosine
United nations, parked on thirty-fourth street
Within her hand, clutched a necklace of pearls
Finally at peace, no longer one with this world
Sweetly composed in the embrace of death
Enshrined in beauty as she forever rests
The crowd it gathers, the witnesses weep
In a bed of twisted steel she finally sleeps
