I’ll Bury the Hatchet When They Bury You Songtext
von Capstan

YOU WERE LIKE AN ANCHOR
TIED TO MY ANKLES
DRAGGING ME DEEP
CUT YOU LOOSE SO I COULD BREATHE
AND ON MY BETTER DAYS
I′M FULL OF CONTEMPT
YOU'RE A SICKNESS IN MY HEAD
THE PART OF ME THAT I DETEST

You′ve got me fractured
A slow burn till I'm ashes
A violent reaction
You're the cancer of my cells
All your memories hurt like hell
I′m fading faster
Is death what you′re after?
'Cause I never mattered
There′s no cure in someone else
Search for solace in yourself


You destroy what's left and call it karma
A religion founded on your pain pills and vodka
You gravitate to self inflicted trauma
Clinging to a broken past as if it were your dogma

YOU TORE ME APART, TOOK WHAT I LOVED
LEFT ME WITH BROKEN PARTS
How do empty hands rebuild?!
How does a vacant mind restart?!
THE ONLY THING FROM YOU
I HAVE EVER LEARNED
IS THAT THE BRIGHTEST LIGHTS
LEAVE THE DEEPEST BURNS

You′ve got me fractured
A slow burn till I'm ashes
A violent reaction
You′re the cancer of my cells
All your memories hurt like hell
I'm fading faster
Is death what you're after?
′Cause I never mattered
There′s no cure in someone else
Search for solace in yourself


A shallow foundation, built upon your hatred
Where we stood, the ground gave way
Collapsing on our lives swallowed by the faultline
That buried me under your weight
A shallow foundation, built upon your hatred
Where we stood, the ground gave way
Collapsing on our lives swallowed by the faultline
That buried me under your weight...
