Graveyard Boquet
Song Lyrics
Inspired by various alternative grunge and metal songs as well as the dark, depraved stories that I read more than I breathe, I decided to write a song that represents a blending of those two loves of mine. I am no musician, I bearly have a melody for this, but if anyone is interested I'd love to hear people make something of it for fun!
I have this ache in my chest
Buried deep inside
A grave I dug with fingernails
A place for you to hide
In the wind, I hear your moans
My ribs cracking headstones
My lungs are full of your bones
Gardens tattooed on my skin
Ready to give in to it all
I’m whispering a sirens' call
A serenade before I fall
Like petals in the wind
CHORUS
I want to resurrect you
Pull apart, dissect you
(Pull apart, dissect you)
See what secrets I can find
I want to look in your eyes
Pull apart the grey skies
(Pull apart the grey skies)
I refuse to be denied
Promises like chalk art
I spill graffiti on your skin
Begging, when can we start
Won't let the Reaper win
You look so still I'm breaking
My breath you keep on taking
These wounds I can't be faking
I’m shredded by the thorns
The world is full of smoke now
I'm made of ash and bone, how
Do I take that last bow
They're throwing flowers at my feet
CHORUS
I want to resurrect you
Pull apart, dissect you
(Pull apart, dissect you)
See what secrets I can find
I want to look in your eyes
Pull apart the grey skies
(Pull apart the grey skies)
Don't you dare leave me behind
I will cut myself wide open
Spill this crimson blood
Can't stop myself from hopin’
We can sink beneath this flood
I smile as I'm drowning
A thank you on my lips
Praying you won't leave me
My sanity, it slips
You creep inside me gently
Tucked against my heart
You tell me that you love me
You tear my flesh apart
CHORUS
I want to resurrect us
Pull apart, dissect us
Shred the veil inbetween
I want to steal your grey eyes
Paint the night on fresh sky's
Take the things that can't be seen
I have this ache in my chest
Buried deep inside
A grave I dug with fingernails
Where we lay now side by side
(Where we lay side by side)

Congrats on top story!
Great song, congratulations on top story.
i don’t have a musical bone in my body but i could hear this so vividly. “a grave i dug with my fingernails where we now lay side by side” the desperation!!!! the visceral need!!! so so good
This is great. Inbound myself trying to sing along.
I could pull out every line since I liked this so much but these in particular, "My ribs cracking headstones / My lungs are full of your bones" struck me as incredibly powerful. I loved this! But then again, I love grunge and metal too! Great job and Congrats on the Top Story!
I love this so so much!!! I was trying to think of different melodies as I went through it. It's so beautifully written! If you like grungy/alternative music with beautiful lyrics like this, I highly recommend Sleep Token!
