lyrics

I am digging a hole to put in all that is wrong:
every yellow blade of grass that does not belong;
every cobweb and throne, every flickering neon sign
that announces no vacancy; candy hearts saying "be mine."

We take a pause in the war
to bury our dead.
The old mind games and lovers
that gather in our heads.

I'm digging a hole to put in all that went bed:
every broken string, dead battery, dead beat dad;
that perfect night we didn't finish at the same time;
every wrong direction and flower picked before it's prime.

We take a pause in the war
to bury our dead.
The old mind games and lovers
that gather in our heads.

I'm digging a hole to put in all that's stray:
every stillborn dream, grey unmarked grave;
every unseen masterpiece, every love song never heard;
every flame that grew too fast, every lesson never learned.

We take a pause in the war
to bury our dead.
The old mind games and lovers
that gather in our heads.
