graves Lyrics

You are devoid of logic, you're devoid of care

It was just a roof, but you were greedy too

I was barefoot, you were wasted, and we almost fucking died

Like a ghost in fading lights, you haunt my lullabies

I'm watering graves of shattered dreams I failed to keep

The ones I miss will never haunt me

I linger in the sea of my mistakes

And no one's there to break the waves

I kept flirting with death, it didn't help me forget

Ran outside when it was pouring still, you left a void to fill

Secret handshake, I was moon struck, has it ever crossed your mind?

Now the laments I write are me saying goodbye

I'm watering graves of shattered dreams I failed to keep

The ones I miss will never haunt me

I linger in the sea of my mistakes

And no one's there to break the waves

Their vows now rest beneath the lawn

Their bodies are long gone

I tend the grave with trembling hands, for love that fled to foreign lands

The people we once held so dear now lie in silence year by year

I'm watering graves of shattered dreams I failed to keep

The ones I miss will never haunt me

I linger in the sea of my mistakes

And no one's there to break the waves

And so I watch the shadows dance

(Like sand they're running through my hands)

Like sand they're running through my hands

The headstones offer shelter, make me feel like I belong

And a sign is a sign if you want it to be one
