Lyrics

You Are the Grave

This is convergence
Baby, when your bitter stars aligned
In the ashes of your house
What will they find?
While we tear at the meat of our departed, love
Hunting for the next killer’s listing
I’d be willing to bet that there’s nothing left
The middle’s gone
There’s only this thing

Let’s set something else
On fire

Are you really gonna dance for these fuckers?
Have they been wearing your skin the whole damn time?
Never trust a good result
The thousand-cut paradigm

Go set someone else
On fire

We’ve got one star and it’s burning out
One good idea, and it’s delivered here in doubt
So frankly, my dear, I feel that
You are the grave
And I am the digger

Enter the dissonance
Tie me down, baby I won’t fight
In the ashes of your house
A good result
An ominous sign
I want you to remember me like this
I want a lot of things, don’t listen
Hang me in the American West
Don’t bury me there, just leave me twisting

We’re all somewhere else
On fire

I want to say one last thing without stopping
Might be the key to the whole design
Get ‘em in the same room, love
And then you can improvise...

We’ve got one star and it’s burning out
One good idea, but it’s delivered here in doubt
So frankly, my dear, I feel that
You are the grave
And I am the digger
You are the grave
You are the grave
