I came here for sanctuary

Away from the winds and the sounds of the city

I came here to get some peace

Way down deep where the shadows are heavy

I can't help but think of you

In these four walls my thoughts seem to wander

To some distant century

When everyone we know is six feet under

When all of our friends are dead

And just a memory

And we're side by side

It's always been just you and me

For all to see

When our lives are over

And all that remains

Are our skulls and bones, let's

Take it to the grave

And hold me in your arms

Hold me in your arms

I'll be buried here with you

And I'll hold in these hands

All that remains

I don't want to rest in peace

We can haunt each other's dreams

We'll fight underneath this turf

And bicker away in darkness

We'll find our way to resolve

Our banes from the land of the living

We'll find a common ground

And fall in love all over again

When all of our friends are dead

And just a memory

And we're side by side

It's always been just you and me

For all, all to see

When our lives are over

And all that remains

Are our skulls and bones, let's

Take it to the grave

And hold me in your arms

Hold me in your arms

I'll be buried here with you

And I'll hold in these hands

All that remains

From dusk to dawn, my unheard screams

Grow silent in defeat

I know I chase a memory

But you used to taste so sweet

As you fade away, I realize

It's all over

And nothing stays the same

The skull and bones and grave

When all of our friends are dead

And just a memory

And we're side by side

It's always been just you and me

For all, all to see

When our lives are over

And all that remains

Are our skulls and bones, let's

Take it to the grave

And hold me in your arms

Hold me in your arms

I'll be buried here with you

And I'll hold in these hands

All that remains
