The Sadness of Graves by Islander Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Look at all the beautiful buildings scattered on the ground
All the people enslaved by their liberations
And look at all the bloodshed
The lamb has been bled dry (look at all the blood)
It's become a crime to be found innocent
But tell me, what's the crime?
[Chorus]
The earth is a tomb
It's on fire
The earth is a tomb
It's on fire
[Verse 2]
You have the knowledge of good and evil
You're the only thing that can smile
So let's open up our hearts and see what's inside
It's just the scientific way
It's scientific, it's so terrific
It's the roses that you're smelling outside
It's scientific, it's so terrific
It's the art form that you can't deny
[Chorus]
The earth is a tomb
It's on fire
The earth is a tomb
It's on fire
[Bridge]
Hell still burns beneath children's feet
Our arms don't reach and our hearts don't bleed
No our hearts don't bleed
Oh, please open your eyes
While you're only one step away from the living dead
[Chorus]
Did you know that the earth is a tomb?
It's on fire
Did you know that the earth is a tomb?
It's on fire
[Outro]
It's scientific, it's so terrific
It's the roses that you're smelling outside
It's scientific, it's so terrific
It's the art form that you can't deny
Look at all the beautiful buildings scattered on the ground
All the people enslaved by their liberations
And look at all the bloodshed
The lamb has been bled dry (look at all the blood)
It's become a crime to be found innocent
But tell me, what's the crime?
[Chorus]
The earth is a tomb
It's on fire
The earth is a tomb
It's on fire
[Verse 2]
You have the knowledge of good and evil
You're the only thing that can smile
So let's open up our hearts and see what's inside
It's just the scientific way
It's scientific, it's so terrific
It's the roses that you're smelling outside
It's scientific, it's so terrific
It's the art form that you can't deny
[Chorus]
The earth is a tomb
It's on fire
The earth is a tomb
It's on fire
[Bridge]
Hell still burns beneath children's feet
Our arms don't reach and our hearts don't bleed
No our hearts don't bleed
Oh, please open your eyes
While you're only one step away from the living dead
[Chorus]
Did you know that the earth is a tomb?
It's on fire
Did you know that the earth is a tomb?
It's on fire
[Outro]
It's scientific, it's so terrific
It's the roses that you're smelling outside
It's scientific, it's so terrific
It's the art form that you can't deny
