Lyrics by Kit Gripp

One breath
But everything just tastes like grave dirt
One look
But darkness surrounds me
One touch
These walls of pinewood press so closely
But, love, I’m alive

I claw my way toward you
Broken limbs and stitched together smile
Sunday best in rags and tatters
Love why do you run don’t run
I’m coming for you

And I stumble ever forward
My grace is gone but I keep walking on
My arms outstretched I’m reaching for you
You can’t bury me I’m never gone

Come now
There’s nowhere else for you to run to
Love, now
We will be together
One bite
Is all it takes to bind me to you
Now you’re in my arms and, dear, you’re never leaving

And I stumble ever forward
My grace is gone but I keep walking on
My arms outstretched I’m reaching for you
You can’t bury me I’m never gone

And we stumble ever forward
Our love is gone but we keep walking on
Arms outstretched we’re grasping for it
Wish that we had just stayed dead and gone
