Devil Wears Prada, The - Home For Grave Lyrics






The normal man, promised all things
Brought into this, taken by pain
He mistook home for grave
The normal man, filtered by hate
Living to pay, buying what's fake
He mistook home for grave
It's not what we're made to be
So why'd he do it?
I guess he just did not know
I guess we just do what we're told
The anthem cries, but why listen?
I guess we just do what we're told
Betrayed again, betrayed again
What began as life for him was only sorrow, was only shame
It's like the story of disgrace
Fraught with peril every day
So why'd he do it?
I guess he just did not know
Given nothing, left so lonesome
He mistook home for his grave
It's not what we're made to be
So breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe
I guess we just do what we're told
The anthem cries, but why listen?
I guess we're just do what we're told
Betrayed again
What began as life for him was only sorrow, was only shame
It's like the story of disgrace
Fraught with peril every day
I guess we just do what we're told
Betrayed again, betrayed again
I guess we just do what we're told
The normal man passed away
Dead and gone

  3. K.... G....

    Camp Rock 2 Wouldn’t Change A Thing Demi Lovato

  4. I.... ....

    Garbage

  5. A.... P....

    3:34 onwards gives me goosebumps. So amazing.

  6. n.... ....

    By far my fav of this album even tho the album is beautiful

  7. D.... Y....

    R.I.P TDWP

  8. J.... N....

    I absolutely love this song. Check out my vocal cover of it :) https://youtu.be/mupzms768QM

  9. S.... ....

    I could picture a music video for this being a girl in a white dress wandering around in a dark forest

  10. S.... ....

    "Oh anna" means family. And family means no one gets left behind.

  11. M.... T....

    God doesn't like swearing but he loves u

  12. G.... M....

    this deserves way more views

  13. R.... H....

    TDWP are post-hardcore now? This sounds like La Dispute

  14. M.... R....

    I originally thought that last part was "This life won't wait for us."
    Oh well I think the meaning is pretty much the same.
    Such a great band btw

  15. T.... R....

    This song is a masterpiece. Every note, every word sings to my soul. All I can say is... I am moved.

  16. F.... M....

    if they can bring out an album like dead throne this band will rise again..

    F.... M....

    Or if they did an album like zombie. I don't think it will happen tho.

    F.... M....

    x _ x fag? Lol listen to you there big boy? If u prefer this record over dead throne you might have a pussy. Dead throne is their best followed by zombie ep imo

  17. s.... ....

    instantly reminded me of lifestory monologue.

  18. P.... ....

    fuck you Anna!

  19. T.... C....

    in love with this song right now :)

  20. C.... K....

    Songs like this one that make me ok with the fact that they changed their style so much.

  21. N.... V....

    this is one of their weirdest song they ever made

  22. J.... B....

    TDWP does things to me. Especially live. Like no other band.

  23. J.... G....

    At first I didn't like the way he spoke in the middle of the song but it grew on me. The way it culminates in the hard vocals at the end makes it really emotional and raw. I love it.

  24. A.... F....

    i don't mind Mike losing his screams, as long as he gets into spoken word, It'll be ok.

    A.... F....

    Adrián Fulcar ur stupid dude

  25. J.... S....

    Is this just a rip off of La Dispute? Haha

  26. F.... D....

    I've been waiting for this song for so long... major Silent Planet and Being as an ocean vibes!
    I have mixed feelings, is this normal?!?

  27. m.... ....

    Worst song on the album by far

  28. J.... W....

    2:49 You can hear Mike gritting his teeth on the word "still" lol.

    J.... W....

    Such an amazing little detail. Absolutely love it.

  29. E.... ....

    The end of this song is just fantastic. Hope they play it live this tour.

  30. O.... S....

    cool! very love this song.

  31. H.... H....

    mike keeps talking about name of places on almost every song. he may got the insipiration by reading geography book.

    H.... H....

    the album is called transit blues....that's kind of the theme....

    H.... H....

    The entire album is about the struggles of being a band who has to travel and be away from their family and such.

  32. S.... R....

    YES! Love you guys for real! Fuckin Dope!

  33. S.... G....

    Amo esta cancion t.t

  34. C.... M....

    More of a Silent Planet/Being as an Ocean vibe

  35. R.... W....

    GIVE ME THOSE FEELS THEIR MINE

  36. A.... V....

    Being As An Ocean? is that you?

  37. R.... w....

    Why does the name have to be of my ex..damn man...it hurts....Great song tho.

    R.... w....

    I hope you feel better after all this time!

  38. D.... G....

    “Oh Anna, my dear!” she could nearly hear him. :') perfection

  39. Z.... ....

    If the whole song was like the end, I think it'd be much better.

  40. i.... ....

    “On 8:18, the song Home For Grave spoke of a relationship that failed because the man dies and his wife never amounts to anything. It suggests how unfair life can be. This felt like the right time to continue the story when Anna finds out that Ian died. Vocally it’s a great contrast because it’s more spoken word and yelling, it closes with ‘move along, you’re next’, and that’s basically saying carry on, because you’ll die too.” -Mike.

    i.... ....

    HIHisLife love you mike

  41. H.... O....

    This song is beautiful, although I'm not sure if I would name it this either.

    H.... O....

    it's part of the story the singer (mike hranica wrote) he wrote a small book called Home For Grave, that's what the first song was based off of, and this is as well.

  42. R.... S....

    Being As An Devil Wears Prada

    R.... S....

    The Devil Wears An Ocean

    R.... S....

    I'm the fan of both band can't help but love thier shit

    R.... S....

    the silent devil as an ocean

    R.... S....

    The Silent Devil Wears Ocean

    R.... S....

    Being as a silent devil wearing ocean skin

  43. J.... d....

    this is album is flawless

  44. C.... ....

    I like the musical arrangement but ill take part 1 haha

    C.... ....

    ChazOfGod part 1 is definitely better. sequels are NEVER better than the original

    C.... ....

    I like this one better! But to each their own.

    C.... ....

    ChazOfGod this one is waayyy better

    C.... ....

    I agree I think this one is actually even better than part I

  45. B.... ....

    that Silent Planet heavy poetry vibe, I love it

    B.... ....

    + Blurryface I know right? sounds like a mix of Silent Planet and BAAO... absolute perfection coming from TDWP

    B.... ....

    But some could say that the repetitiveness adds desparity to the story. Like the thought of Ian's death is just eating and eating away at Anna. Almost remniscent of something Edgar Allen Poe would write. It tells a good story, repetitive or not, I don't think that the HOOK of the song should harm the songs overall quality, because artists tend to repeat the hook of their song.

    B.... ....

    Easily one of the best on the album I'm always down for hearing mike yell his poetry.

    B.... ....

    It's not a Silent Planet vibe at all. Ever heard of a band called La Dispute?

    B.... ....

    and it's TDWP

  46. L.... ....

    wow such a powerful song

  47. E.... L....

    unbelievable.

  48. D.... M....

    I love this style

  49. K.... G....

    TDWP meets La Dispute. so so good

  50. H.... ....

    Jesus him talking sounds terrible.. Band has lost its touch.

    H.... ....

    were you born stupid? they've gotten better over the years

    H.... ....

    I have to agree, the "oh Anna, my dear" part sounds kinda bad to me. I like the music and the hard vocals at the end though. Maybe it'll grow on me.

    H.... ....

    I like it, gives you chills hearing that each time imo

    H.... ....

    It's more about raw emotion than it is "tone" per say...

  51. G.... ....

    I don't like it.
    I also don't give a fuck about lyrics, it just doesn't sound good to me.

    G.... ....

    ....but it's possible to grow on me.

  52. C.... ....

    This totally has that Silent Planet vibe.

    C.... ....

    I can hear the vibe, but this is extremely repetitive and not nearly as well-written as Silent Planet. But it's not a fair comparison since Garrett Russell is a lyrical genius.

    C.... ....

    Corvus Veis Agreed. He truly is.

  53. J.... G....

    I love how this ties some of the ends up from the book

  54. W.... c....

    I fucking love it
