safe upstairs burials (my wife i'll keep) şarkı sözleri
Burials (My Wife I'll Keep) I'll lay my mother with her kindness
and her eyes wide open
I'll lay my father with his demons and tomes
and one eye closed
I'll lay my brother, naked
a seed amongst the seas of all the tries
I'll lay my children in pairs
interwoven hair and hearts of honey
and my wife i'll keep forever in her bed she'll be loved I'll lay the teachers on the marble slabs
for all to learn just one more lesson
I'll lay preachers in the dirt
with all the other sinners and spinsters
I'll lay the kings and queens
with the servants and the pawns that they are
bury me upright, I shall never bend
to the shallow whims of time
and my wife i'll keep forever in her bed she'll be loved I'll lay the sun and moon and stars under your eyelids
where they'll glow like you have glowed
I'll lay the drugs under the tongues of all the hypocrites
and parents of the children they neglect
I'll lay the truth upon you all
for it's the only glory we will ever know
I'll lay the tears into the oceans
that's where the salt must go
but my wife i'll keep forever in her bed she'll be loved I'll lay the birds with all the bees
to show us how it's truly done
I'll lay the war down with the peace
and let them fight it out themselves
I'll lay the sights and sounds
onto the mounds of forgotten heroes
I'll lay the boys with the girls
to be at peace without the hassles of time
but my wife i'll keep forever in her bed she'll be loved
