Novena Songtext
von dearbones

It′s a little bit harder to breathe
Set the bed aflame, watch me die
Let the fire engulf me
This is where we live
But it's not our home
Turn to dust, rot away, open up
It′s you alone

Will you still know my name?
Will you still know my name?

I tried to pull you out but you kept digging in
Clawing at the walls, breaking nails while they're caving in
If only I had eyes to see what's happening
I′d see I′m the one you were burying

Will you still know my name?
Will you still know my name?

Will you know my name?
Will you know my name?


This is a funeral, a eulogy
(Stand up, stand up)
A fading song you can't seem to shake, a haunting
(Sound off, sound off)
This my home, my cellar door
(Take it back, take it back)
A lacerating sore that you can′t take
(Forgive, forget)

Will you still know my name?
Will you still know my name?

Will you know my name?

I swear to God I loved you but I did it wrong
I tried to pull you out but you kept digging in, kept digging in, kept digging in
You sore to God you wouldn't hurt me but you did it wrong
Clawing at the walls, breaking nails while they′re caving in, caving in, they're caving in
I swear to God I loved you but I did it wrong
If only I had eyes to see what′s happening, what's happening, what's happening
You swore to God you wouldn′t hurt me but you did it wrong
I′d see I'm the one you were burying
