Candy Apple Blue - Graveyard lyrics

rate me

Words & Music by Carly Emerick & Hoyt Emerick

You left your black candles burning

And your tarot cards on the floor!

You left the window wide open you forgot to lock the door

The way you ran out of here

I'd say it's perfectly clear that I've seen the last of you!

Did you evaporize? Now your immortalized...

Another mystery... without a clue

So let me tell you what I'm gonna do

Erect a temple in the absence of you!

Believe me baby oh where you left my heart was...

CHORUS:

In a Graveyard... full of plastic flowers

In a Graveyard... no after hours

In a Graveyard... I'm buried next to you!

I'm in the graveyard. (look out, look out)

I'm in the graveyard.

You left the portrait you painted up above the fireplace.

The answering machine message is gonna need erased!

You could have left me a note, or some Morrissey quote like...

"You Just Haven't Earned It Yet Baby!"

Then at least I would know you didn't love me so...

I could get over you... But I'm not through

So let me tell you what I'm gonna do

Erect a temple in the absence of you!

Believe me baby oh where you left my heart was...

(Repeat Chorus)

Spoken Break Down:

And now I lay you down to sleep...

I pray your soul will rot in hell

(Repeat Chorus)
