Steve Wright - Whistle Past the Graveyard lyrics

I am giving up and giving in To the unknown, what might have been Out of my hands, out of control Out of my mind, a strangle hold Oh if I look back now I'll only wish I were dead I remember too much Everything you said Granted a wish, you left me for dead Spit in my face, talked sh** about me Sold down the river Cast out to sea I am at a loss, nothing to gain Bled into day, mouthful of sand Under the sun, burnt out my eyes Pulled out my heart, left bleeding out Oh as I look back now I know I'd be better off dead You led me into a house on fire Promised me your sweet desire Chasing love down a lonely street Where desperation and dead ends meet Manic depression moves in like a storm Dressed up for my funeral, torn and worn I walk at night, all alone And whistle past the graveyard Bled into day, mouthful of sand Under the sun, burnt out my eyes Pulled out my heart, left bleeding out I know I'd be better off dead Cut my teeth with heartbroken bones We couldn't do it together And I can't do it alone A love letter to the hangman from you Licked shut and sealed with a kiss Oh, as I look back now I know I'd be better off dead
