Graverobber

I got caught dragging

The scraps from the heap

By the junkyard dogs

They won't leave me alone, no

'Cause I went for the pearl

They keep in the mouth of the pig

But he won't let it go

No, he won't let it go

So I broke the lock to the vault

Where they buried my child

But he won't stay alive

No, he can't be revived

So don't push me

I said I was leaving

I just wanted to stick my hands

Up the shirts of the grieving

Graverobber, you can't take me home

I don't care what nobody says, Lord

That's my bed on the side of the road

Graverobber, your hands are getting cold

We take another drink of the dust

That don't just blow

It pours straight from the veins

Of the ghost of our lord

And it won't be long

Till my cask is a casket

And I've righted all my wrongs

And I've righted all my wrongs

Graverobber, you can't take me home

I don't care what nobody says, Lord

That's my bed on the side of the road

Graverobber, your hands are getting cold

I lost what I've found

In the feedback and chemicals

We're growing mold

On the fruits of our labors

Lost what I've found

In the feedback and chemicals

We're growing mold

On the fruits of our labors

I go back to the well

With my head in my hands

And my tail between my legs

I go back to the well

With my head in my hands

And my tail between my legs

Graverobber, you can't take me home

I don't care what nobody says, Lord

That's my bed on the side of the road

Graverobber, your hands are getting cold
