Mourning Lyrics

Spiritbox
The Mourning lyrics by Spiritbox is a song filled with the themes of loss, denial, pain, and difficulty in accepting that a significant thing has occurred in one's life. The mourning dove, window, darkness, wind, and lighthouse paint the image of a place which symbolizes the emotions that the person is going through. The theme of rejecting the reality of what has occurred makes the whole song very longing and bitter at the same time because of the contrast of these feelings. Overall, the Mourning by Spiritbox combines atmospheric lyrics with melancholic mood.

Mourning Song Lyrics

(I heard you call at my window just like a mourning dove)
(Straight through the heart of a feeling, feeling)

You fly over when it's cold out
Follow me home (Follow me home)
Back to the lighthouse

Another voice in the dark says you won't sing to me
It's better if I accept it

I heard you call at my window just like a mourning dove
Straight through the heart of a feeling I can't feel anymore
So I will wait by my window until the morning
And you swear it gets better when the bitterness hits
If I don't accept it

Will you float on?
As the wind blows
If I don't accept it?
My denial stops the wheel

Another voice in my heart begs you to sing to me
It's better than I expected

I heard you call at my window just like a mourning dove
Straight through the heart of a feeling I can't feel anymore
So I will wait by my window until the morning
And you swear it gets better when the bitterness hits
If I don't accept it

If I don't accept it (If I don't accept it)
My denial stops the wheel (If I don't accept it)
If I don't accept it (If I don't accept it)
My denial stops the wheel (If I don't accept it)

I heard you call at my window just like a mourning dove
Straight through the heart of a feeling I don't feel at all
So now I wait by the window until the morning
I can never take back the pain you give if you leave me

I won't accept it
My denial stops the wheel
No, I won't accept it
My denial keeps you here
