Bury Love Alive Lyrics

There are days when I miss you

And days I put you out of my mind

And days I think of happy days

And days I curse the days

We left behind

Leaving me wondering

How we let the little things that make a life

Put little holes inside

Til nothing covered us at all

And we were naked but for love

That was the brick

That couldn't make a wall

I wanna hate you

Skin you alive

I wanna kick you

Out of my life

I wanna pretend

That you don't mean a thing

And there was never a time when we had everything

Can't pretend that I'm blind

Every time I look behind

And I see two lovers in life

Two people crazy enough to try

To bury love alive

There are days when I slip through

And watch the whitewash of the waves

Outside the whitewashed house we made

That we fit into

Or lying in the grass

My things escaping from the bag

That your dog bit through

If one of us had died

The other could have grieved and then survived

But our love never died

We just buried it alive

Nothing comes close

Nothing comes close to you

Nobody can but you

I wanna hate you

Skin you alive

I wanna kick you

Out of my life

I wanna pretend

That you don't mean a thing

And there was never a time when we had everything

Can't pretend that I'm blind

Every time I look behind

And I see two lovers in life

Two people crazy enough to contrive

To bury love alive
