Lyrics Graveyard - Lucy Schwartz

Graveyard

Don’t wait up
I’ll be walking through the graveyard
And I’m hardly alive
If I try to survive with just a paper heart
And you know you’re not there
When the wind in your hair goes right through you
And you know that you’re gone
When the sound of a song cannot soothe you
And it’s a difficult burden to bear
When you’re not quite there
Call my name
Maybe if I hear it I’ll remember
'Cause I’ve forgotten my past
I am only a mask, just a pretender
And you know you’re not there
When the wind in your hair goes right through you
And you know that you’re gone
When the sound of a song cannot soothe you
And it’s a difficult burden to bear
When you’re not quite there
Oh, we’re nothing but walking spirits
Only shadows, we’re only shadows
Screaming out but no one will hear us
Only shadows, we’re only shadows
And you know you’re not there
When the wind in your hair goes right through you
And you know that you’re gone
When the sound of a song cannot soothe you
And it’s a difficult burden to bear
When you’re not quite there
