"Headstone" lyrics

"Headstone"

Take it slow
Sleep never was my antidote
Hallucinations pay my rent
Around we go
On a chair in the back of my home
While scattered words bounce round my head

Take the song out dancing
Or out to the park
While the fools of forever
Get etched to your arm

Carve it into my headstone
When I die
Say I never took this for granted
Not once In my life
I couldn't walk away if I tried
I couldn't walk away if I tried

Shake the rust
Til the tide washes my body up
Spills the water from my lungs
With a heart full of thunder
Like a bull to the fight
Heaven called out my number
But I won't go inside

Carve it into my headstone
When I die
Say I never took this for granted
Not once In my life
I couldn't walk away if I tried
I couldn't walk away if I tried

(No no no no no)
(No no no no no)
(No no no no no)
(No no no no no)
