Lyrics
Cemetery Savior
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You could change your way
Living long enough to stay
But you're leavin' before the day breaks
Your proving ground is strange
Your proving ground is strange
No pain, no need to blink
You say it's better when you don't think
You like to live on the dark side
You like to live on the dark side
A reflection of one
A lifetime with nothin' to hide
Just don't ask what you do for a livin'
No one here says what they mean
No one here says what they mean
She always takes it easy
Never thinks twice
Behind the scenes is where you are
Cemetery savior
Blown down from northern skies
Did time on the asphalt prairie
She's a cemetery savior
Cemetery savior
A cemetery savior
