lyrics

id love to whisper words into your grave
but i know that you will never hear
a single word that i would think to say
they all just clog up in your rotting ear

ill keep the photos i never took of you
and scorch the edges to mock time
clocks are nothing but spinning wheels
with number that dont add up to nine

in the future others will use your name in songs
but theyll never know just how you felt
the list of writers grows long
and the world will soon forget

someday i will go back to school
and read a book about ressurrection
and if it doesnt bring you back to me
ill burn it and borrow another one

your memory wont survive out of this bedroom door
you died with your body and soon ill die with mine
no one will remember your face anymore
and selfishly to me that sounds fine

and ill sing every song i ever wrote
because my dear theyre all about you
and as i stare up at the bottom of the boat
ill gurgle your name if its the last thing i ever do
