The vocal and its lyric video were released on September 12, 2017, as the 4th and last single from her debut studio album, Stranger in the Alps, through the Expressionless Oceans label. The song follows a narrator describing the death of someone whose funeral she will be singing at, depicting the inescapable grief, feet, depression of everyday life.

"Funeral" is based on the funeral and decease of Bridgers'southward close friend, who overdosed on heroin.[ane] She recalls the experience of speaking to her friend's father later on his death, with the lyrics: "And I've been talking to his dad/ Information technology makes me so sad/ When I recall too much almost information technology I tin can't breathe".[two]
Bridgers illustrates her struggle with depression and her ideation of death: "And I have this dream where I'm screaming under h2o/ While my friends are waving from the shore".[iii] Bridgers has said that much of her music is inspired by decease: "I do think about dying a lot. I feel like a lot of my friends, especially artists, are consumed with this idea of the inevitability of death".[iv] Bridgers also has spoken about how intimate and emotional "Funeral" is for her: "Every time I sing that song, I get a petty bit uncomfortable because it'south and then personal".[5]
The song is a downbeat, acoustic track that begins and ends with the distortion of an electric guitar.[6] Bridgers's gentle, feathery vocals and lamenting lyrics are accompanied by an acoustic guitar throughout, with string arrangements coming through on the chorus. The chorus'southward repeating lyrics—"Jesus Christ, I'm so blueish all the fourth dimension/ And that'south only how I feel/ Always take and e'er volition"—highlight the recurring wheel of low.[7]
