Shallow Grave Songtext
von Matthew Santos

You know I wrote it in a letter
But I think that talking′s better
I just wanna make it okay
Well, upon my weakest moments
When my demons laughing in the dark
Wish it all just go away

If I knew then what I know now
I know it had to happen how it did
So that I could learn my lesson
Mistakes are easy made and hard to take
Don't make the same mistake twice
It′ll be just like a blessing

I know I'm in your debt now, darling
You know it's gonna be repaid
I hope we can forgive and forget now, darling
It′s buried in our shallow grave


Well, this pain how it reminds me
I′m alive with each decision to undyе
Raindrops ripple 'cross the watеrs
This bitter makes the sweet taste so much better
Like the spring after the long and barren cold, cold winter, yeah

And I know I′m in your debt now, darling
You know it's gonna be repaid
And I hope we can forgive and forget now, darling
It′s buried in our shallow grave

Perfect is the person who accepts they're no one′s perfect
No exceptions, lest the human we face
This love is so much bigger than the world of cynics
Stickering through smoke
A lighthouse calling out my name

I know I'm in your debt now, darling
You know it's gonna be repaid
I hope we can forgive and forget now, darling
It′s buried in our shallow grave
Said I know I′m in your debt now, darling
You know it's gonna be repaid
And I hope we can forgive and forget now, darling
It′s buried in our shallow grave
Said it's buried in our shallow grave
And I hope that there′s a rest you're gonna stay
