Damien Jurado - I Will Still Be Dead Lyrics

I fell in to the shallow ground
It soon became my grave
Roll my bones like a dice and play
And dig me with your spade

And you will steal the light
And use it for your fire
And I will still be dead
And I will still be dead

Hold my breath I’ll come back for it
There’s dirt still in my lungs
The insects hide while you lure his eyes
Coffins for our cars

And you will steal the light
And use it for your fire
And I will still be dead
And I will still be dead

Wake me up like Lazarus
And call me to your side
Tell me what to say and feel
So I can stay alive

And you will steal the light
And use it for your fire
And I will still be dead
And I will still be dead
