Graverobber - The Damned Things

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 until my cask is a casket

And I’ve righted my wrongs, I’ve righted 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 labours

I lost what I’ve found

In the feedback and chemicals

We’re growing mold on the fruits of our labours

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
