Cemetery

Album: Say Anything (2009)

  • There's a cemetery deep below the sea
    They're the spaces reserved for fools like me
    Tried to kill myself at least a dozen times
    But nothing seemed to turn out right

    Now I'd rather wait a half a century
    Soiling the bed all belligerent and wrinkly
    Even when I go blind and lose my mind
    Nothing seems to turn out right
    Something's gotta turn out right

    If you want then when we die
    We'll ascend to someplace way up high
    At the gate, they'll show you through
    If they ask me, I'm with you

    You're in my body
    You're, you're in my body
    You're in my body
    That's where I think about you
    (You're in my body and that's where I think about you)
    You're in my body
    You're, you're in my body
    You're in my body
    That's where I think about you

    There's no one who imagines like you
    So convinced there's somewhere that we go to
    Not a first class trip to the abyss
    Tell me, do you still feel this?
    Tell me, do you still feel this?

    As I drown in lakes of fire
    I will call your name as I expire
    It's the last thing that I'll do
    I will tell them I'm with you

    You're in my body
    You're, you're in my body
    You're in my body
    That's where I think about you
    (You're in my body and that's where I think about you)
    You're in my body
    You're, you're in my body
    You're in my body
    That's where...

    Falling asleep, asleep at the wheel
    As I approach that cliff, I'm starting to feel
    If you could wake me up with only your touch
    I could die with you, life would be enough

    Falling asleep, asleep at the wheel
    As I approach that cliff, I'm starting to feel
    If you could wake me up with only your touch
    I could die with you, life would be enough

    And I'll face the one who made
    My disgusting heart from a lump of clay
    Should he ask what got me through
    If he asks me, it was you

    You're in my body
    You're, you're in my body
    You're in my body
    That's where I think about you
    (You're in my body and that's where I think about you)
    You're in my body
    You're, you're in my body
    You're in my body
    That's where I think about you
    (You're in my body and that's where I think about you)
    You're in my body
    You're, you're in my body
    You're in my body
    That's where I think about you Publisher: Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC
