Words and Music by Carly Emerick & Hoyt Emerick
You left your black candles burning
And your tarot cards on the floor!
You left the window wide open and forgot to lock the door
The way you ran out of here
I'd say it's perfectly clear that I've seen the last of you!
Did you evaporize? Now your immortalized...
Another mystery... without a clue
So let me tell you what I'm gonna do
Erect a temple in the absence of you!
Believe me baby oh where you left my heart was...
CHORUS:
In the Graveyard... full of plastic flowers
In the Graveyard... no after hours
In the Graveyard... I'm buried next to you!
I'm in the graveyard. (look out, look out)
I'm in the graveyard.
You left the portrait you painted up above the fireplace.
The answering machine message is gonna need erased!
You could have left me a note, or some Morrissey quote like...
"You Just Haven't Earned It Yet Baby!"
Then at least I would know you didn't love me so...
I could get over you... But I'm not through
So let me tell you what I'm gonna do
Erect a temple in the absence of you!
Believe me baby oh where you left my heart was...
(Repeat Chorus)
Spoken Break Down:
And now I lay you down to sleep...
I pray your soul will rot in hell
(Repeat Chorus)
