Shallow Graves
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.
Hey Mr.Rabbit in a hurry and late
Don’t you know what it’s gonna take
Go ask Alice
She will know
What it’s like to fall down in your hole
All our lives we keep
Building shallow graves in greed
Till the death comes close
We’ll know what we’re gonna miss the most
You try to reach it but you’re already there
For a rat the race is never fair
Stop and look
You will see
The sand of time keeps on running free
All our lives we keep
Building shallow graves in greed
Till the death comes close
We’ll know what we’re gonna miss the most
Wrong notes in the symphony
Your DNA memory
And your blood carries a name
That’ll be written on your grave
All our lives we keep
Building shallow graves in greed
Till the death comes close
We’ll know what we’re gonna miss the most
