No One Came to Mourn Me — So I Did
TitanChord
I dug the hole, I chose the place,
A patch of earth without a face
The preacher left when I walked in,
He knew the weight I carried in
No one came to mourn me — so I did
Laid my sins where I once hid
No name carved, no flowers laid
Just truth that time could not evade
If love was ever what I bid —
No one came to mourn me…
So I did
My horse walked off at break of light,
Didn’t wait, didn’t look — just right
Even ghosts don’t haunt me now,
I rode too far for them somehow
No one came to mourn me — so I sang
A broken hymn, a lonesome clang
No tears, no final whiskey poured —
Just wind that whispered what I swore
I left the world like smoke half-lit…
No one came to mourn me — so I did
No one came to mourn me — so I stayed
A shadow where the dead don't fade
Don’t write my name, don’t mark the hill —
If I’m remembered, let it chill
I was the story never rid…
No one came to mourn me —
So I did
Timing is estimated — lines are spaced evenly across the track.

Lyrics
I dug the hole, I chose the place, A patch of earth without a face The preacher left when I walked in, He knew the weight I carried in
No one came to mourn me — so I did Laid my sins where I once hid No name carved, no flowers laid Just truth that time could not evade If love was ever what I bid — No one came to mourn me… So I did
My horse walked off at break of light, Didn’t wait, didn’t look — just right Even ghosts don’t haunt me now, I rode too far for them somehow
No one came to mourn me — so I sang A broken hymn, a lonesome clang No tears, no final whiskey poured — Just wind that whispered what I swore I left the world like smoke half-lit… No one came to mourn me — so I did
No one came to mourn me — so I stayed A shadow where the dead don't fade Don’t write my name, don’t mark the hill — If I’m remembered, let it chill I was the story never rid… No one came to mourn me — So I did
