Graveyard of Memories
Recall a mother’s concerned look
So please take care of my son and should
Anything happen
I’m a phone call away
And that is when we first got hooked
The proof of fruit that we feast upon
Took our chances with wild romances
Vultures gather on barbed-wire fences
Graveyard
Of memories, graveyard
Of memories, graveyard
Of memories
I recall those empty shells
Of interventions by our party pals
I just regret I didn’t ring the bell earlier
Graveyard
Of memories, graveyard
Of memories, graveyard
Of memories
Legacies unknown
Wind through streets
Sometimes sun shines for weeks
Graveyard
Of memories, graveyard
Of memories, graveyard
Of memories
Muffled voices in the distance
Well far and few too many listen
And old and holy we hold dear fear
Crude and basic when we’re calm
Some kind of pointless charm
For all intents and purposes
There were so many witnesses
For all the good times we were brave
And all bad times we were slaves
At the end
We claim our own graves
Graveyards
