Gravestones Lyrics - Singles - Monkey Swallows The Universe

Look for me every night, if you half close your eyes 

You can make out mine in the ghostly light 

And you'll hear me cry, "It's not me 

Though you shrink in fear, I am nowhere near 

I'm apparently not fit to rest here 

Were my grave and wake for my mother's sake 

For if you care to exhume you'll see it's not my tomb 

You'll find no bones, no sticks, only stones 

Cause whatever I did, I must've paid high 

Cause there's nothing left to remember me by 

And the people I see at night say it serves me right 

If I knew my crime would I suffer more? 

If I wasn't blind to those days before 

I know that all these stones that serve to replace my bones 

Were laid to hide whatever revenge was played that night 

But the sound of the dark, I've heard it before 

And the people I see in my sleep said they'd seen me run from the law 

Well, is there anything that they don't know?
