The Birthday Massacre
The Birthday Massacre - Shallow Grave lyrics
Your rating:
Her voice cuts through the walls Rings through everything that's hollow These bitter words recall All that's left and hard to swallow She was always good for nothing when the good broke bad All she's got to lose is everything she never has (every back turned to her) We put her down in a shallow grave She wears a dress like a body bag, everyday And this way she won't have to run away And she can keep her regrets at bay, everyday Her blood runs hot to cold Always breaking all she borrows Her favours bought and sold She lives like she's dead tomorrow Just another reason looking for the next 'because' Just another has been wishing that she never was (every back turned to her) We put her down in a shallow grave She wears a dress like a body bag, everyday And this way she won't have to run away And she can keep her regrets at bay, everyday Tomorrow's not a new day, more time to think things through As patience starts to fall away, a day can feel like two When we gave her a new face, the past was out of view She never fooled us because she could never fool herself We put her down in a shallow grave She wears a dress like a body bag, everyday And this way she won't have to run away And she can keep her regrets at bay, everyday
