The Weasel King's MySpace page here. Several free downloads there, although not this particular song at the moment. (He is rotating them periodically.)
Lyrics, transcribed in the comments, include spoilers for Book 6.
Okay, I feel really stupid but ... what was this song about? The references to stepping out "into the summer night" make me think of Harry's sacrifice at the end of DH, but other lines in the song make me less sure about that.
I liked the tune, but I could only understand about 10% of the words so, no, it wasn't at all obvious to me. Thanks for transcribing so I could get the context.
Btw, I don't know if you saw, but I posted our anniversary portrait this afternoon. :)
Helpless behind the door I watch you topple back In slow motion and green [Harry watches Dumbledore fall off the tower, killed by Avada Kadavra] Seconds pass like lifetimes And still days fit there in between [his perception of time is distorted by horror] And everyone is blind to me [because Harry's wearing the Invisibility cloak] Can't anyone hear me scream? This can't be real This isn't happening [he can't believe Dumbledore is dead] Someone please tell me this isn't what it seems [that Snape killed Dumbledore] And there's movement in my limbs again [because Dumbledore's Petrificus Totalus spell on Harry is off now that Dumbledore is dead] My heart is racing, I can't breathe Is this goodbye, is this farewell to you There wasn't anything that I could do So you tell me there's not a greater plan I'm left here alone to do what I can And now hopeless and empty, I find our prize and a note inside [the fake locket] Why did you have to die? Why did you have to die? Funeral fires were bright white As we step outside into the blinding summer light [this is Dumbledore's funeral] This is goodbye This is farewell to you I'm still your man Through and through [Harry tells Scrimgeour he's Dumbledore's man] I can't breathe

I watch you topple back
In slow motion and green [Harry watches Dumbledore fall off the tower, killed by Avada Kadavra]
Seconds pass like lifetimes
And still days fit there in between [his perception of time is distorted by horror]
And everyone is blind to me [because Harry's wearing the Invisibility cloak]
Can't anyone hear me scream?
This can't be real
This isn't happening [he can't believe Dumbledore is dead]
Someone please tell me this isn't what it seems [that Snape killed Dumbledore]
And there's movement in my limbs again [because Dumbledore's Petrificus Totalus spell on Harry is off now that Dumbledore is dead]
My heart is racing, I can't breathe
Is this goodbye, is this farewell to you
There wasn't anything that I could do
So you tell me there's not a greater plan
I'm left here alone to do what I can
And now hopeless and empty,
I find our prize and a note inside [the fake locket]
Why did you have to die?
Why did you have to die?
Funeral fires were bright white
As we step outside into the blinding summer light [this is Dumbledore's funeral]
This is goodbye
This is farewell to you
I'm still your man
Through and through [Harry tells Scrimgeour he's Dumbledore's man]
I can't breathe
