Kiss The Grave

Lyrics

KISS THE GRAVE [Intro — whispered] Midnight calling… Cold hands on the windowpane… You said forever. Forever never came. [Verse 1] Black roses underneath the rain, Your photograph still knows my name. I walk the road where we once kissed, Like a ghost trapped in a memory. Your perfume's fading from my clothes, But your shadow follows where I go. I hear your voice beneath the ground, Like something dead that won't stay down. [Pre-Chorus] Tell me, darling, can you hear me? Through the dirt and through the stone? If love is really never-ending, Why am I dancing here alone? [Chorus] I'll kiss the grave where your heart lies, Underneath these violet skies. One last touch, one last goodbye, Before your ghost fades from my eyes. I'll kiss the grave, I'll say your name, Hold the ashes of our flame. If heaven won't give you back to me, I'll love you through eternity. [Verse 2] Moonlight crawling through the trees, Cold wind whispering memories. Your empty chair, your empty side, Still feels like you're here tonight. I carved our names into the dark, Two broken souls, one dying spark. Every heartbeat feels like rain, Every breath repeats your name. [Pre-Chorus] Tell me, darling, can you hear me? I'm still standing at your door. You disappeared beneath the silence, But I still want you even more. [Chorus] I'll kiss the grave where your heart lies, Underneath these violet skies. One last touch, one last goodbye, Before your ghost fades from my eyes. I'll kiss the grave, I'll say your name, Hold the ashes of our flame. If heaven won't give you back to me, I'll love you through eternity. [Post-Chorus — airy vocals] Kiss the grave… Kiss the grave… Love doesn't die, It changes shape. Kiss the grave… Kiss the grave… Your ghost is mine Inside the rain. [Verse 3 — darker] Maybe we're both already gone, Just wearing bodies moving on. Maybe death is just a door, And I'll find you like before. No angels singing overhead, No golden light around the dead. Just your name beneath my skin, And all the places we've been. [Bridge — dramatic] If I could trade my breath for yours, I'd walk through every haunted door. If I could steal you from the night, I'd drag you screaming into light. But the earth keeps what it takes, And time won't bend for our mistakes. So I'll leave these flowers here— For everything I couldn't save. [Breakdown — whispered / distorted] Don't wake me… Don't save me… Let the darkness take me. Your heartbeat— My memory. Your grave— My sanctuary. [Final Chorus — huge] I'll kiss the grave where your heart lies, Underneath these shattered skies. One last touch, one last goodbye, While forever watches us collide. I'll kiss the grave, I'll say your name, Let the darkness take the blame. If heaven won't give you back to me, I'll love you through eternity. [Outro] Black roses drowning in the rain… Your name still burning in my veins… The night gets colder… The world moves on… But I'll kiss the grave Where our love lives on. Goodnight, my beautiful ghost.
