‘How to Be Dead’

The fourth jewel to be released from Final Straw, this track is laced with enough heartfelt emotion to fill an ocean. A plea for understanding, an attempt at explanation – we’ve all been there at some stage and this song represents the sense of frustration beautifully. Ethereal guitar and plaintive lyrics, underlaced with the warm melancholy of Lightbody’s voice: ‘How To Be Dead’ is a little beauty of a song.
