When the callous forms on your weary feet I would carry you till the devil is asleep Are my open arms not the heaven you seek? When I know one day you'll get tired of me If death is only waiting for a final breath I'm waiting for your silhouette I could follow you forever till the bitter end And we could make amends, say we'll meet again The afterlife is colder than they told me it would be Now I have nothing left to lose But these cemetery blues I was patient there in the cemetery Watched the flowers bloom through the dirt I'm underneath Even six feet down, I can hear you speak 'Cause I know one day you'll get tired of me If death is only waiting for a final breath I'm waiting for your silhouette I could follow you forever till the bitter end And we could make amends, say we'll meet again The afterlife is colder than they told me it would be Now I have nothing left to lose But these cemetery blues Carry me until the devil is asleep Watch me bloom from the dirt I'm underneath Death is only waiting for a final breath Carry me until the devil is asleep Watch me bloom from the dirt I'm underneath Nothing to lose but these cemetery blues Are my open arms not the heaven you seek? When I know one day you'll get tired of me
