Celestial Daydreamer - Banksy's Funeral Lyrics

[Intro]
Ashes to ashes, burning bright
In this temple of neon light
Breathing heavy, feeling strange
Time to set this stage ablaze

[Verse 1]
Daddy's needles in holy places
Ghost of memories, forgotten faces
I dance through smoke and broken glass
While my heart beats deep house fast
They call it vandalism, I call it art
Tearing down these walls apart
Chemical courage in my veins
Dancing through these sacred flames

[Chorus]
This is my funeral, but I'm still alive
Breaking boundaries, just to survive
Watch me burn it down, watch me rise
No more pretending, no more lies
(This is my temple, this is my rave)
(This is my freedom, this is my grave)

[Verse 2]
Dev's sweet poison, whispered late
Another lover I've learned to hate
Underground queens, we wear our scars
Like glitter underneath the stars
My father's breath, a broken song
Teaching me where I belong
Between the beats and shattered dreams
Nothing's ever what it seems

[Bridge]
They say I'm crazy, say I'm lost
But they don't know what freedom costs
In this temple of decay
Watch me dance my soul away

[Chorus]
This is my funeral, but I'm still alive
Breaking boundaries, just to survive
Watch me burn it down, watch me rise
No more pretending, no more lies
(This is my temple, this is my rave)
(This is my freedom, this is my grave)

[Verse 3]
Every beat's a revolution
Every dance a resolution
In this space between the light
Where we gather in the night
Burn the rules and break the chain
Let the music kill the pain
This destruction sets us free
From everything we're meant to be

[Outro]
Ashes falling like black rain
As I rise to dance again
In this temple of the night
Everything's gonna be alright
(Let it burn, let it burn)
(Watch me dance, watch me turn)
