Into the Ground
this eulogy was meant for me
the flowers go on the casket
if you wanna join then take a seat
close the lid and latch it
set me into the ground
the sky is grey, the air is cold
hurry and lower me down
my body is trapped here, but you freed my soul
goodbye, oh dear life
you caused my strife
and beat me down
lower me into the ground
goodbye, all my dreams
these tears stream
down all these faces
lower me into the ground
these roses are decaying
just like me in here
and after all your praying
the sky might begin to clear
I'm trapped in this endless cycle
of life and of death
above me is an angel
cold, hard, and without breath
goodbye, oh dear life
you caused my strife
and beat me down
lower me into the ground
goodbye, all my dreams
these tears stream
down all these faces
lower me into the ground
the flowers go on the casket
if you wanna join then take a seat
close the lid and latch it
set me into the ground
the sky is grey, the air is cold
hurry and lower me down
my body is trapped here, but you freed my soul
goodbye, oh dear life
you caused my strife
and beat me down
lower me into the ground
goodbye, all my dreams
these tears stream
down all these faces
lower me into the ground
these roses are decaying
just like me in here
and after all your praying
the sky might begin to clear
I'm trapped in this endless cycle
of life and of death
above me is an angel
cold, hard, and without breath
goodbye, oh dear life
you caused my strife
and beat me down
lower me into the ground
goodbye, all my dreams
these tears stream
down all these faces
lower me into the ground
