  • Death is her boyfriend
    She spits on summers and smiles to the night
    She collects crowns made of black roses
    But her heart is made of bubble gum

    Graveyard girl
    Graveyard girl

    Dark rags and red stars
    She's the dirty witch of her high school
    She worships Satan like a father
    But dreams of a sister like Molly Ringwald

    "I'm gonna jump the walls and run
    I wonder if they'll miss me?
    I won't miss them
    The cemetery is my home
    I want to be a part of it
    Invisible even to the night
    Then I'll read poetry to the stones
    Maybe one day I could be one of them
    Wise and silent
    Waiting for someone to love me
    Waiting for someone to kiss me
    I'm fifteen years old
    And I feel it's already too late to live
    Don't you?"
