Dirty Graves

from February Demos by Joseph Running Crane

/

lyrics

The sun rises just in time to break the stillness of the night
While I'm keeping my shakes from the sleeping beauty by my side
All in all I can't complain about the choices that I've made
'Cept these choices left these voices they've been picking at my brain
When I find that peace of mind or job that actually pays
I'll be waiting for the kids on time on every holiday
Nobody can miss nothing if that nothing never was
No your sister hasn't called me but I'll text you when she does

Take me away to a dirty grave
Where old Skoal cans and forgotten flowers lay
Sing me up high put me in the ground
Leave me on the outskirts of town

My car well it ain't working it was working yesterday
I'll get you for the grass and gas next week when I get paid
I'll count the days and dimes like fifths of wine all slowly drying up
Drunk and out of time singing along to Come And Get Your Love
When the sun goes down I circle 'round the shadows on the wall
Bob and weave the jabs and swings like there's nothing there at all
But nobody can miss nothing if that nothing never was
I take a swing and leave the outline of the nothing in my blood

And on that day clean up my grave
Take those flowers and throw them away
Say your goodbyes but shed no tears
Make it so that I was never here
