Would you meet me in the graveyard after dark
I wanna bury my secret in your arms
When it’s just us and there’s no one else left
I know you gotta kill me to get ahead

And now the poets fall to their knees
For the captains of the industry
Maybe I’ve been the one having too much fun
So c’mon baby let that bullet leave your gun

I’m tired of singing for their design
Toss another dollar cross the finish line
The girl behind the counter with the broken eyes
She’s the only thing in here to make me feel alive

Drifting through the city streets
Crashing on the couch of the music scene
Where I fell asleep with the devil
Goddamn she was beautiful

And tonight when I cry like a baby
Not even her love’s gonna save me
Cuz I hear what those critics say
It’s funny when you watch your dreams wash away

For what I drink I should know by now
The days turn to years like another round
And everybody’s singing bout a broken heart
I’ve been listening for years from the back of the bar

So would you meet me in the graveyard after dark,
I wanna bury myself in your arms
When everybody’s looking at me
Saying what are you doing with your whole life
What are you doing with your whole life
what are you doing with your whole life

I’m just another dead poet trying to make it out alive
