graves

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
