Into the Grave

You say you like it, you say what you don't want

And when you get that feeling afraid

Whenever words start to give you away

You run your life down into the grey

The passage of time is on parade

Centering hearts into the crave

Are you coming along

The dogs are stray

Nowhere to run

The wind and the rain

If only for a night

You wish that everything would be alright

You know you wouldn't phone them for a day

Go back to where you used to fear the flame

What you do and what you say

Living in your own world

Taking time away

I know that your number has changed

And that you don't look the same

As you did in the days you were mine

You say you like it, you say what you don't want

And when you get that feeling afraid

Whenever words start to give you away

You run your life down into the grey

Into the grave

You wore your best

Gave it a name

Laid it to rest

Just a baby girl

She knows the heartbeat of her mother's chest

What you know and what you guess

Was it telling you to quit

Maybe time's a test

I know that your number has changed

And that you don't look the same

As you did in the days you were mine

I know that your number has changed

And that you don't look the same

As you did in the days

Later that night

I've seen you before

We were going to stay

South of the sun

The fear of the flame

Later that day

Yeah, I feel you away

But we're breathing the same pace

In and out of the grave
