Gravedigger Songtext
von Nefariant

Lookin back at you
It′s true
That there could have been a better way
But how can you justify taking your own life
When the same could be said about any of us instead
Breathe deep
Don't make me lift you up by your feet
Every day we all tell ya to hang in, goddamn
How would it be fair to make any of us
Find your bag of bones swingin′?

I'm not gonna be your gravedigger
Can't carry your weight on top of mine
Don′t be dead weight, dragging all of us down
You gonna make one of us a gravedigger
If you really wanna take your own life
Oh! You wanna go?
You better, Dig
You better


Listen when I tell you no plan ever has been sound
I know it feels like there has never been a ground but
We all struggle, but in place of each mistake
Is every new breath that we take

What makes you think your pain is special?
Like this life isn′t hell though
Time to face your demons down
Do you really think this rope will absolve you?

I'm not gonna be your gravedigger
Can′t carry your weight on top of mine
Don't be dead weight, dragging all of us down
I′m not gonna be your gravedigger
This life is pointless, ruthless, never painless
Ain't no way I′m letting you get out ahead of me
Why would you make me be your gravedigger?
I didn't come here to watch you die
I know, I know, I know, I know
That you don't really wanna be a gravedigger
You just want to kill something inside
This is not too big, You don′t have to Dig
You don′t have to


Be anything other than the best that you have been
You're not defined by yesterday my friend
We all struggle, but that self-pity is just fear
Of learning anything and everything the hard way
