skyclad - bury me lyrics
you came, you saw, you conquered as a woman of your word.
so to say farewell like judas is a thing i find absurd.
you shook my world – (you sucked me in then spat me out in bubbles),
the effects of your affections stay the cause of all my troubles.
[chorus:]
the only thing you never did was have the decency
to kiss this corpse and nail the lid – came on and bury me!
i placed you on the pedestral – you tossed me in the gutter
it seems your lies were like those thighs – spread easier than b-tter
i’m first to go, so last to know how fickle is your p-ssion
now my bones hang in your closet though my face is out of fashion
[chorus:]
as vultures circle round my head, far as the eye can see,
i walk this world (the living dead) – high-time to bury me!
you laid me to death – now lay me to rest
a sticky sweet-nothing to get off your chest
it’s all pillow-talk at the end of the day
the cat’s got your tongue – with so much left to say
i’m not the knave you ‘ve fooled – behind the mask you wore
my beguiling, smiling virgin hides the cunning of a wh-r-
cause your ego needs an offering – ’tis i the coffin fits
so i martyred like st.edmund with your name upon my lips
[chorus:]
“oh, do it hurt?”
oh’boes it not! – i died with each degree
just one small detail overlooked – the need to bury me!
i ‘m just the shade of something you remembered to forget
stood like banquo by your bedside – you just haven’t seen me yet
every notch upon the headboard – each twist in your string of lovers
is a tear on your pillow – fate serves you as serves the others!
[chorus:]
“you swore to always stay my friend – why even this can’t be
kept your back turned until the end whilst i begged; bury me!”
