Cemetery

Is it uncool to post meanwhile lyrics here? Too bad, I'll do it anyway.

Cemetery, by 15-16 puzzle

I saw what you wrote to the editor:
Your telltale, incomparable style.
The whole county knows what you said to her,
So you better hope that they smile.

You dug your own grave
Trying to save
Something we've tried to ignore.

A nod and a smirk
Ain't gonna work
We've had people like you before through that door.

Don't sell me.
Don't tell me.

I don't have wishes and dreams of a life that is ordinary.

Don't sell me out.
Don't tell me bout
What you're thinking , me and this cemetery.

The whispers, I try to ignore them
I already know what they say:
The six drunken years you've recorded
Who starred in them, day after day?

Itching to start
Playing the part
Nobody wants you to take.

Tell me what's worse:
Trying to rehearse,
Or leaving these shots in your wake?

Don't sell me.
Don't tell me.

I don't have wishes and dreams of a life that is ordinary.

Don't sell me lies.
Don't tell me why
I should settle for you and your cemetery.

cemetary - big M - for MeanWhile

dark skies loom overhead
dead trees claw towards the sky
its the playground for the dead
the years pass
no one stops by

6 feet down lays their bed
the rusty gate doesn't close quite right
its the playground for the dead
you get to play there when you die

bluebirds sing
churchbell rings
the dead can sleep through any sound

cobwebbed crypts
twisted sticks
no one dares to come around

C in the cemetery
E it's elementary
M-balming a mumm-E

It's fun to wonder through
The cemetery with you
To tell you what you mean to me

T is when you tease me
E is when you're easy
R-guably easy to see Y

It's fun to wonder through
The cemetery with you
To tell you what you mean to me
