Lyrics

You couldn't see a future
Staying in this town.
That's what you told me
As you laid us in the ground.
I watched you bury me
From six feet down.
So I can't see a happy
Ending for us now.
There's no use
In digging up the past.
Leave the wilted roses
Laying on the grass.
They're already buried
The bones of you and me.
It's better if we let them
Rest in peace,
Rest in peace.
It wouldn't make a difference
What you were gonna say.
You can't bring a lifeless heart
Back up from the grave.
And what's written on a headstone
Ain't ever gonna change.
It really doesn't matter
How we ended up this way.
There's no use
In digging up the past.
Leave the wilted roses
Laying on the grass.
They're already buried
The bones of you and me.
It's better if we let them
Rest in peace,
Rest in peace.
There's beauty in the tragic
With every tear we shed.
Nothing good can come
When you speak ill of the dead.
There's no use
In digging up the past.
Leave the wilted roses
Laying on the grass.
They're already buried
The bones of you and me.
It's better if we let them
Rest in peace,
Rest in peace.
