Sleater-Kinney - Funeral Song lyrics

rate me

Stay away from the haunted heart

Stay away from the haunted heart

You swore to yourself that you'd make a new start

Just like the demon with the poison dart

There's nothing left to see

Turn out the light

There's nothing left to see

Turn out the light

Stay away from the burning house

Stay away from the burning house

To get inside, you'll never get out

Die together before the flames go out

Burn your baby make you scream and shout?

Burn your baby make you scream and shout?

Build it up just to tear it down

Nothing left but ashes of doubt

There's nothing left to see

Turn out the light

There's nothing left to see

Turn out the light

Put it in the ground sing a funeral song

Put it in the ground sing a funeral song

Have the neighbors over and we'll sing along

Lowering the coffin on a love gone wrong

Hey there now what did you bury today?

Hey there now what did you bury today?

Buried the love that I hoped would stay

Nothing says ‘forever' like my very own grave

There's nothing left to see

Turn out the light

There's nothing left to see

Turn out the light

There's nothing left of me

Turn out the light

No one here but me

Turn out the light
