"In The Ground" lyrics

"In The Ground"

You are deceased, you're unbred
You are my brother but now you are dead
You didn't like me
I think my head will never agree words that I said
No one can see me now, Paul
Only you
And you can't beat me now, Shaun
So fuck you
Take that down to town
It's the other way around
You would sell me out for a penny in a pound

Now you're in the ground
You're in the ground
You'd sell me out for a penny in a pound
Now you're in the ground
No one can see me now
Only you

Now my mom don't need her slippers anymore
So they sit on the lawn by a chair on the floor
With their battered down heel and the way that lean
They silent the mouth of the absence of she
She got fear of her way through the years every day
A memory, a word, or a look
Now the cap is for bed that's in front of the chair
And her slippers just sit there all unloved

It's been hard for me lately
I just lost my dad
Now I know my daddy loved me
But he could be quick with his hands

Now you're in the ground
You're in the ground
You'd sell me out for a penny in a pound
Now you're in the ground
No one can beat me now
Only me
And no one can see me now
Only you
Now you're in the ground

Now you're in the ground
You're in the ground
You'd sell me out for a penny in a pound
Now you're in the ground

So I used to be somebody
But now I'm somebody else
I lost both my mum and dad
Don't wanna lose no one else
But I hoped anyone loved me
But I am so sad
If anyone hurts me
I feel my tears will soak dead back

But it's a different time, that don't make you fine
One little slip and he bust my behind
"Two bull cyant run in one pen"
I heard him say that over and over again

Now you're in the ground
You're in the ground
You'd sell me out for a penny in a pound
Now you're in the ground
You're in the ground
You'd sell me out for a penny in a pound
Now you're in the ground

When you're battered and bruised
You're more likely to use
Self-medicate to be straight
So you can navigate and get through life
Death is just hard
When you're battered and bruised
You're more likely to use
So you can navigate and get through life
Death is just hard

Now you're in the ground
You're in the ground
You'd sell me out for a penny in a pound
Now you're in the ground
You're in the ground
You'd sell me out for a penny in a pound
Now you're in the ground
