Emery - From Crib to Coffin Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • But the regret came, and here I am.
  • I used to walk outside my door.
  • But I don't go outside anymore
  • When will they carry me to my grave?
  • So I can pay for the things my hands have done.
  • Two sons will take my body
  • and place it in the ground.
  • And I hope they know to be nothing like me.
  • My Blood is tainted with bitterness.
  • I want it out, I want it out of me.
  • Oh, the taste of my inheritance.
  • How I have fallen, the hills will cover me.
  • You too will become weak.
  • The trees are green what happens when they turn dry.
  • The trees are green what happens when they turn dry.
  • We chose our words and threw them towards the sky.
  • The trees were green, now they have all turned dry.
  • There was a bird
  • whose wings were crushed by a windshield.
  • So fast to the ground,
  • the roadside it found as it's eyes closed.
  • I heard the driver say as she pulled away,
  • "What could I have done? The worst is over."
  • I thought to myself with risk to our health.
  • No one ever offers me help.
  • When we were boys
  • we chased through neighbors' fields.
  • We could run forever, and I swore to my friends,
  • their lives I would defend, as a superhero.
  • But age finds the lust and gives it your trust.
  • And begs your devotion in trade for discretion.
  • The years play out as days as those friends pass away.
  • But you are taken care of, there is always television.
