Gravedigger

I'm the only one who knows you're a gravedigger
Goin' out at night with a shovel on your shoulder
You're diggin' for a reason to stay bitter
Pullin' up my past though it died last winter
Footsteps, missteps, left in the dark
Headlights, moonlight, chasin' down a heart

Won't you let it, won't you let it go?
Woah-oh, oh
Won't you let it, let my shadows go?
Woah-oh, oh
Some things are better left to the graveyard
Gravedigger, let the past die will you?

Da-da-da, da, da-da-da, da
Da-da-da, da, da, di-da, die
Da-da-da, da, da-da-da, die

You're chasing down a ghost with an old trigger
Turning out the lights and blacking out the mirrors
I'm begging you to see clearer
You're hanging me higher with each step nearer

Won't you let it, won't you let it go? (Woah, woah)
Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh
Won't you let it, let my shadows go? (Woah, woah)
Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh
Some things are better left to the graveyard
Gravedigger, let the past die, will ya?

You're prying in the dark, I'm praying in the moonlight
Your lie is my cacophony
Will you hear my simple sentence? My cemetery sentiment?
Some things are better left to the dead
Well, break open the casket if my past if it'll help, but
I must ask it

Won't you let it, won't you let it go?
Woah-oh, oh
Won't you let it, let my shadows go?
Woah-oh, oh
Some things are better left to the graveyard
Gravedigger, let the past die will you? (Won't you let it go?)

Da-da-da, da, da-da-da, da
Da-da-da, da, da, di-da, die
Da-da-da, da, da-da-da
Da-da-da, da, da, di-da, die
Da-da-da, da, da-da-da, da
Da-da-da, da, da, di-da, die
Da-da-da, da, da-da-da
