Cradle to Grave

Across The Sky

Cradle to Grave


I reach back through your mind 
To the day that struck me blind 
When we were undefined 
No future within sight 
Why can't she realize 
The past should stay behind? 
With schemes and dreams 
And bended knees that never reach full stride 
Just like mine 

Hands over shoulders 
Ash across the sky 
Scatter me slowly 
As I've yet to die young 

Two-time, just once 
'Fuck me, it's just for fun' 
'Fuck you, I wasn't done' 
A warning of what is to come? 
Why won't my memory 
Fail just this once for me? 
I fear these seams will stretch and bleed 
All over everything 
We'll ever be 

Hands over shoulders 
Ash across the sky 
Scatter me slowly 
As I've yet to die 
And follow my heart 

Will you want something more? 
Will I become your whore? 
Why can't I understand all of this evidence? 
Will I remember that what you gave me 
Is all I get? 

Fuck me fuck me fuck me fuck me 
Fuck me fuck me fuck me fuck me 
Fuck me fuck me fuck me fuck me 
Fuck me fuck me 
Fuck it 

The hands of your former grasp you under mine 
This man has been frozen in time 
Where the past is no friend of mine 
No friend of mine 
No friend of mine
