V / Voltaire / The Necropolis of Former Lovers
We walked together through a garden everyday It seemed a place of peace, it did for me anyway But you saw tigers lurking just beyond the fences And tear up those paper cats, they're nothing more Than your defenses
You kicked the crosses of my exes everyday It never made you seem better than them in anyway You read between the lines of epitaphs on graves Even in bed you raised the dead to speak their names
Don't wake the beast while she's asleep Don't dig for demons underneath In this necropolis where former lovers lay Don't try so hard to dig that hole for your own grave
You kicked the crosses of my exes everyday It never made you seem better than her in anyway You read between the lines of epitaphs on graves Even in bed you raised the dead to speak her name
I could have walked beside you endlessly But I grew weary of the shallow graves you led me to It's nothing short of a tragedy You finally made me sad enough To write that song about you
I could have walked beside you endlessly But I grew weary of the shallow graves you led me to It's nothing short of a tragedy You finally made me sad enough To write that song about you
You finally made me sad enough To write that song about you You finally made me mad enough To write that song about you Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa. |
