Cutrefaction

And so you’re dead

But look, it’s not that bad

One lonely night

Your heart stopped beating

And now what’s that?

That feeling in your chest

Can you still love

When you stop living?

Hear me coming as the sunset light goes low

And take my hand

Let’s break out of that shell

That keeps us far

From each other

Hear the cemetery whispering our song

There are blisters on your face

And your tongue is turning gray

And the blood is pouring over us

Like lovely summer rain

I see worms inside your eyes

Not a single tear you cry

After seven days inside that grave

I’m never going back in there I swear

Do you hear that sound?

Your body’s now the house

Of plenty of new

Little creatures

And soon we’ll get

Back where it all began

And flowers will grow

Upon our remains

So before we go won’t you give me some love?

There are blisters on your face

And your tongue is turning gray

And the blood is pouring over us

Like lovely summer rain

I see worms inside your eyes

Not a single tear you cry

After seven days inside that grave

I’m never going back in there I swear

As the owl sings our tune and true love is in bloom

We’ll run out of our tombs in the night

We will prove them all wrong

We’re back where we belong

Our hearts lifeless but warm tonight

There are blisters on your face

And your tongue is turning gray

And the blood is pouring over us

Like lovely summer rain

I see worms inside your eyes

Not a single tear you cry

After seven days inside that grave

I’m never going back in there I swear
