lyrics

Midnight depredation
Your body reeks of fabrication
The lies once told cemented in

The past should stay dead
But its burial has yet to be
Tomorrow’s light, it shall forever see

Come to terms with your mistakes
Life will give and life shall take
Say goodbye to dreams, denied
All your hopes and dreams must die

Going out with a Glasgow smile
Lay to rest, your past so vile

Ritual delusions
The lies you tell just dig you deeper
Like rotting flesh to the maggots

Witness the birth of death
You’re only digging your own grave
Your flaw is what they crave

This flaw is your past
This initial buzz, it doesn’t last
If you continue down this dark path
Death’s cold embrace, you’ll feel its wrath

Going out with a Glasgow smile
Lay to rest your past so vile
Hammer in the final nail
Be done…Bury your dead

Waiting for the things that will never be
The past haunts you constantly
Looking at the world as something in which to confide
Tonight, all that is good and pure in you will die
Close the doors you left wide open
Like wounds in a stuck pig, life pouring out
Digging my own grave never felt so comforting
But if my time never comes…Bury me alive

All bonds are broken
The mystery left unsolved
Comes back to haunt you

All ties are severed
Pulled tight, then snapped
Naivety is so damn sweet

The past will come to haunt you
And kill all things that you thought true
Move on, put it six feet under
Walk away; take no part in her blunder

Going out with a Glasgow smile
Lay to rest your past so vile
Hammer in the final nail
Be done…BURY YOUR DEAD
