At Your Grave
Unveiling the Depths: A Grave Encounter with Betrayal and Redemption
Lyrics
I bet you say you found God just to pray that I'm dying
The person being addressed pretends to have found religious faith only to hope for the speaker's demise.
I bet you still call me crazy to anyone who'll listen
The person continues to label the speaker as crazy to others.
And I bet you haven't learned what qualifies as consent
Suggests the person hasn't understood the concept of consent.
But it's all the same to you
The person is indifferent to their actions' impact on the speaker.
'Cause the next me's in your bed yeah
Implying that the person moves on to others quickly after the speaker.
But I ain't going backwards
The speaker refuses to regress or return to a previous state.
Bailing out this car first
Prioritizing their own escape or departure from the situation.
You can live alone in this hell you made
The person is left to dwell in the mess they've created.
I'll haunt you through the speakers
The speaker will persistently haunt the person's thoughts.
Blast it through the ether
Intent to make their presence felt through music or communication.
Hope next time we meet it's at your grave
Expresses a desire for a future meeting at the person's grave.
Ooh hope the next time we meet is at your grave
Reiteration of the wish to meet the person at their grave.
Ooh but you're already dead to me anyway
Emphasizing that the person is already emotionally dead to the speaker.
I spit out the self blame and all this fucking shame
Rejecting self-blame and shame, directing it back to the person.
Ooh it's all yours you can take that to the grave
Handing over the burden of guilt and shame to the person.
I bet you're still holding on to an axe that needs grinding
The person is holding onto unresolved issues that need addressing.
I bet the only way you sleep is to call me the villain
Suggesting that the person can only find peace by demonizing the speaker.
Burned me at the stake 'cause you couldn't face the truth
Accuses the person of harming the speaker instead of facing reality.
I asked you once I'll ask again
A repeated inquiry about the person's way of living.
How do you live the way you do?
Expresses confusion or disbelief in the person's choices.
I don't want your secrets
Rejecting any desire to know the person's hidden truths.
This is where I leave it
Deciding to move on from the situation.
You can live alone in this hell you made
Leaving the person to face the consequences of their actions.
I'll haunt you through the speakers
The speaker's determination to persist in haunting the person.
Blast it through the ether
Continuing to assert their presence through communication.
Hope next time we meet it's at your grave
Reiterating the wish for a future meeting at the person's grave.
Ooh hope the next time we meet is at your grave
Reiteration of the desire to meet the person at their grave.
Ooh but you're already dead to me anyway
Emphasizing the emotional detachment from the person.
I spit out the self blame and all this fucking shame
Rejecting self-blame and shame, redirecting it back to the person.
Ooh it's all yours you can take that to the grave
Transferring the burden of guilt and shame to the person.
They say actions speak louder than words
Highlighting the importance of actions over words.
And that character is who you are
Defining character by one's behavior when unobserved.
When no one is looking
Emphasizing the real nature revealed in private.
And eventually what you do in the dark will come to light
Implying that hidden actions will eventually be exposed.
Every mask you wear will disintegrate
Metaphorically suggesting that disguises or falsehoods will fade.
And in the light I see who you are
Seeing the true nature of the person in the light of truth.
And that is why you lay here today
Linking the revealed truth to the person's current state.
Ooh hope the next time we meet is at your grave
Reiterating the desire for a future meeting at the person's grave.
Ooh 'cause there's nothing left for me to say
Resignation, implying there's no more to be said or done.
I spit out the self blame and all this fucking shame
Rejecting self-blame and shame, transferring it to the person.
Ooh it's all yours you can take that to the grave
Handing over the burden of guilt and shame to the person.
