"Churchyard" lyrics - ETHEL CAIN

ETHEL CAIN
"Churchyard"

Every time I lay in my bed
I go to sleep hoping I'll wind up dead
I tried to pray you away
Even though I know praying for you's a waste
Can you hear the church bells ringing, baby?

[Chorus:]
You ate the heart right out of me
And when you kiss me all I taste is myself and how I reek
Like a red wine staining all my virgin sheets
Will you bury me behind the chapel where you first met me?

It's a coffin of sorts where we lay
And you hide the nails in all the love that we make
You suffocate me baby, and I can't bear the weight
Are you gonna make me dig my own grave?

[Chorus:]
You ate the heart right out of me
And when you kiss me all I taste is myself and how I reek
Like a red wine staining all my virgin sheets
Will you bury me behind the chapel where you first met me?
