dig up her bones
but leave the soul alone
boy with a broken soul
heart with a gaping hole
dark twisted fantasy
turned to reality
kissing death
and losing my breath

midnight hours
cobble street passages
forgotten savages
forgotten savages

dig up her bones
but leave the soul alone
let her find a way
to a better place
broken dreams and silent screams
empty churches with soulless curses
we found a way
to escape the day

dig up her bones
but leave the soul alone
lost in the pages
of self made cages
life slips away
and the ghosts come to play
these are hard times
these are hard times
for dreamers
and love lost believers

dig up her soul
but leave the soul alone
let her find a way
to a better place
broken dreams
and silent screams
empty churches
with soulless curses
we found a way to escape the day

candybar creep show
my highs hit a new low
marinate in misery
like a girl of only 17
man made madness
and the romance of sadness
a beautiful dance
that happened by chance
happened by chance
happened by chance

dig up her bones
but leave the soul alone
let her
let her
let her
let her find her way back home
broken dreams
and silent screams
empty churches with soulless curses
we found
we found
we found a way
to escape the day
to escape the day
to escape the day
to escape the day
