I've spent some time digging up graves
I just can't let it go, it won't wash away
Like the dirt & the mud & the grass & the leaves
They track on my heart like your words did to me
You know, some things just don't go to plan
But oh, I'm hoping that you'll understand
Why I dig up their graves
They've buried my heart along with the pain
I stay & I pray but the words go to waste, ever since you went away
So I dig up their graves
& I haunt in the light of day
I wear my suit, I wear my tie
I'll always keep my alibi
In my pocket with the diamond ring you gave to me last spring
I keep my words in an iron vault but you'll still hear me sing
You know, some things just don't go to plan
But oh, I'm hoping that you'll understand
Why I dig up their graves
They've buried my heart along with the pain
I stay & I pray but the words go to waste, ever since you went away
So I dig up their graves
& I haunt in the light of day
I haunt in the light of day
I haunt in the light of day
You taunt in the light of day
You taunt
So I dig up your grave
You've buried my heart along with the pain
You stay & you pray but the past is all laced
& memories can't be erased
So I dig up your grave
& you haunt in the light of day
