Cemetery Sunset Lyrics

There are cracks at the foot of our gravestones

A shoddy amateur build

Assembled with love by our own four hands

What we lacked in skill, we made up in sheer will

Now the weeds push forth like rats in the basement

They fight to be the first through the wall

No keeper around that can stop them from growing

They'll topple us soon but when we stood, we stood tall

Sunset at the cemetery

We hold hands as our shadows grow tall

Dreading the moment they'll be buried

Our silhouettes swallowed by nightfall

Drive me home before the dead come to call

We stayed out as late as we could stay

Chasing each ghost from its grave

Purgatory lived by the Bardo Code

"Leave every plane more pristine than you came"

When we met, lost souls passing through strangers

But stuck when you fell in my arms

Never learn our lesson like it's lather, rinse, repeat

Why not try to navigate the labyrinth with me?

Sunset at the cemetery

We hold hands as our shadows grow tall

Dreading the moment they'll be buried

Our silhouettes swallowed by nightfall

Drive me home before the dead come to call

Maybe the keys fit the lock

Just not to the door that we thought

And maybe the stars make the light

But with you tonight

We'll have our last dance as the moon starts to rise

Sunset at the cemetery

We fade into the fog and from sight

Dreading the moment we'll be buried

What will we look like on the other side

So this is what it feels like to…
