Intro riff (x2)
(Intro/verse riff x 2)
And It's a long ride home when you just buried your own
forced goodbyes have been stolen from your lips
Not even the sun feels warm as it cuts through the clouds
and lays down across your skin
(Intro riff)
(Intro/verse riff x2)
Fake flowers and hymns hailing Jesus Christ
oh so steril white and over lit
and a dead body laying in a wooden box
opened up so you wont forget
