"I Buried Our Love" lyrics

"I Buried Our Love"

I felt neighbors peep through curtains as I started breaking ground
I could feel their curiosity, but they did not come around
Six foot long and six foot deep, exactly four foot wide
I gathered everything you left and threw it all inside
Covered photographs and memories one shovel at a time
But I still got this haunted heart that keeps the past alive

I buried our love, but it won't rest in peace
It rises with the sinking sun and sets your memory free
It's a heartless, endless hunger that feeds off my misery
I buried our love, but it won't rest in peace

I close the blinds and bolt the doors, secure inside my house
But I find I've only locked me in, I haven't locked you out
Left with nowhere else to turn, I rummage through my mind
It isn't long before I learn your memory's still alive

I buried our love, but it won't rest in peace
It rises with the sinking sun and sets your memory free
It's a heartless, endless hunger that feeds off my misery
I buried our love, but it won't rest in peace
I buried our love, but it won't rest in peace
