Buried In Water Lyrics - Dead Man's Bones

Like a lamb to its slaughter 

Buried in water 

Down 

Under the ground 

There's a town there 

I've been down there 

In the middle of the lake 

I hold your hand, for goodness' sake 

When the women and the kids are asleep 

The walls there 

And the skin of the sheep 

So lock all the windows and doors 

The Devil's coming for you and yours 

Love was all that it could give 

But it died so other towns could live 

They don't bury bodies from the drowned 

But they drowned our little town 

Like a lamb to his slaughter 

Buried in water 

Buried in water 

Buried in water 

When the leaves 

Go floating away 

In the pale moonlight of day 

Iury anchors in our ghosts 

And we can let our heartbeats go 

Love was all that it could give 

But it died so other towns could live 

They don't bury bodies from the drowned 

But they drowned our little town 

Love was all that it could give 

But it died so other towns could live 

They don't bury bodies from the drowned 

But they drowned our little town 

We're like the lambs to its slaughter 

Buried in water 

Buried in water 

Buried in water
