Johnny & the Mongrels - Shallow Grave Lyrics

I'm tired feeling this pain
Tired, of giving in
I remember when I used to know how to win
How to let it go yeah
Before you broke me down

I'm a stranger to myself
Buried in a shallow grave, tryin' to find my way out
Stranger to myself
Buried in a shallow grave tryin' to find my way out

It could take a lifetime
Oh to break these chains
I'll never let you take from me...
What still remains

I'm a stranger to myself
Buried in a shallow grave, tryin' to find my way out
Stranger to myself
Buried in a shallow grave tryin' to find my way out

I'll never give up the fight
My heart knows what's right
I need to share the light
I gotta get back... to who I am

Sittin' with my brother on the bayou
Tryin' to wash your memory away
But you keep coming round, tryin' to get down
Yeah, middle of the night
Tryin' to fix your frown
Why can't you see you make me

I'm a stranger to myself
Buried in a shallow grave, tryin' to find my way out
Stranger to myself
Buried in a shallow grave tryin' to find my way out
I'm a stranger to myself
Buried in a shallow grave, tryin' to find my way out
Stranger to myself,
Buried in a shallow grave tryin' to find my way out
