Misterwives Coffins Lyrics

I gave my hand for oh you to hold
I gave my love that you went and sold
Exchange our song for oh another
Can't blame this sad flame that once looked like no other

How do you soften
The thought of carrying coffins
We were so alive
Only to see us wither and die

You say you'd stare even if it should all fall
You're yearning, you're dead when you hit the wall
I shut your ears, tried to make you hear my call

How do you soften
The thought of carrying coffins
We were so alive
Only to see us wither and die
Oh, why, soil and dry

Oh I never ever thought I'd hear these words be said
Now I lay here in my unmade bed
And your stomach is unable to be fed
Your ego swallowed you and from their you fled

So far away
Could not find your way back
Walked down your path
Where feet slipped through the grass

Where feet slipped through the grass
Could not find your way back
Where feet slipped through the grass
Could not find your way back

How do you soften
The thought of carrying coffins
We were so alive
Only to see us wither and die
Oh why, soil and dry
