Grave of My Soul
by Darth Nihlus
Lyrics
Intro
Cold hands on the door
I heard you count my bones
A little crack in the floor
And the room says my name
Verse 1
Black stain on the rug
Where your shadow used to lean
I keep finding tiny teeth
In the seams of my dreams
You left the mirror bent
Now my face looks borrowed
Every time I blink
Something else gets followed
Pre-Chorus
Don't look too long
It learns your shape
Don't speak too loud
It wakes the grave
I feel you near
Inside my skin
One more step
And it drags me in
Chorus
Grave of my soul
Grave of my soul
You took the light
And made it cold
Grave of my soul
Grave of my soul
I hear you laugh
Under my bones
Post-Chorus
Oh-oh, it crawls back
Oh-oh, it calls back
(Grave of my soul)
Verse 2
Mouth full of dust
And a name I can't keep
Clock face melting slow
On the edge of my sleep
Little white moths
In the static on the screen
They keep spelling out
What you did to me
Pre-Chorus
Don't look too long
It learns your shape
Don't speak too loud
It wakes the grave
I feel you near
Inside my skin
One more step
And it drags me in
Chorus
Grave of my soul
Grave of my soul
You took the light
And made it cold
Grave of my soul
Grave of my soul
I hear you laugh
Under my bones
Breakdown
Hush now
Say my name
Soft like a blade
Soft like a chain
Hush now
Say my name
I'll come apart
If you stay
Verse 3
The floorboards breathe
When I pass by
Every locked-up room
Gets a mouth tonight
There you are again
In the corner of the glass
Smiling with my face
As I let you pass
Bridge
If I run
You run faster
If I hide
You crawl after
If I scream
You sing inside
Like a prayer
That never died
Final Chorus
Grave of my soul
Grave of my soul
You took the light
And made it cold
Grave of my soul
Grave of my soul
I hear you laugh
Under my bones
Grave of my soul
Grave of my soul
I shut the gate
But you're still home
Outro
Cold hands on the door
I heard you count my bones
A little crack in the floor
And the room says my name
