Graveyard of Life Lyrics

I'm crawling down the street

You see it on their face

It's a loop hook of defeat

Then it's gone without a trace

And as they walk on by

It hides behind their eyes

The shame is kept within

Praying it will never return again

Did you lose your job today

Or did you catch someone with your wife

There's nothing no one can say

When you're living inside the graveyard of life

Stepping into the park

It moves overhead

There's no light in a world so dark

You wish that you were dead

And when you finally look up

Curse God, swearin' you've had enough

Then it flies through the air

Showin' how you just don't care

Did your mind finally snap

Is the blood on your hands

Even more on the knife

You're not gonna take a crap

When you're trapped trying to escape

The graveyard of life

Here's a shovel

Here's a shovel

Here's a shovel

Standing at the grave

You're too scared to look down

You never pray to be saved

Your shimmy crane turns to a frown

You don't like what I see

I see myself staring back at me

I am what I fear

I sense the end is near

Did I know what I saw

Was an image of myself

Stealing in my grief

And cursing on my strife

I never spoke

And was too afraid to ask for help

That's what love is when you're

Inside the graveyard of life

Here's a shovel

So unbreakable

Here's a shovel

Here's a shovel
