Open Casket by Weatherworn Lyrics
[VERSE 1]
Arrive to pay respect
Marching single-file
We’re marching single-file
With a grievance
We won’t let slip
Your open casket
The boys are dressed
In Sunday’s best
While the girls
Are humming hymns
Half-hearted
I’ll forgive
But I won’t forget
I couldn’t if I wanted
[Pre-Chorus]
Raised to rest;
We raced to seize
Siren cries beneath
Our feet
Who’s to rather say
“if we only knew?”
[Chorus 1]
Won’t you sing?
Won’t you sing me to sleep?
[VERSE 2]
Arrivе to pay respect
Marching single-filе
We’re marching single-file
With a grievance
We won’t let slip
Your open casket
It’s the Hollowness
That kills me the most
We’re laying landmines
Under layers of smoke
And there’s a grave collision’s coming
But don’t know when it’s coming
We’re alive on cruise control
[Chorus 2]
Won’t you sing?
Won’t you sing me to sleep?
Won’t you sing?
Won’t you sing me to sleep?
You swore that it meant nothing
We should have seen it coming
Won’t you sing me to sleep?
[OUTRO]
Speak up, speak out
Taught luck, get out
Without a doubt in my mind
We’ll think twice
We’ll recognize
Speak up, speak out
Taught luck, get out
Without a doubt in my mind
We’ll think twice
We’ll recognize
Speak up, speak out
Taught luck, get out
Without a doubt in my mind
We’ll recognize
Arrive to pay respect
Marching single-file
We’re marching single-file
With a grievance
We won’t let slip
Your open casket
The boys are dressed
In Sunday’s best
While the girls
Are humming hymns
Half-hearted
I’ll forgive
But I won’t forget
I couldn’t if I wanted
[Pre-Chorus]
Raised to rest;
We raced to seize
Siren cries beneath
Our feet
Who’s to rather say
“if we only knew?”
[Chorus 1]
Won’t you sing?
Won’t you sing me to sleep?
