Karrakatta Cemetery

Karrakatta cemetery
Between the hospital and the train
I guess you're either coming or going
But unless you’re gone it's all the same
Ever since grandmas coffin
Was lowered in the ground
I haven't been able to forget yet
The lack of dignity in that sound
Père Lachaise is a holiday
Looks so beautiful in the rain
Karrakatta is a thought of hell full of memories and pain
Karrakatta cemetery
Couldn’t look more like WA
A bowl of water stains the tombstones
And the grass is dead
And the gravel's red
And the people are dead
Karrakatta cemetery
Between the hospital and the train
I guess you're either coming or going
But unless you're gone it's all the same
