Lyrics Schoolyard Heroes

Schoolyard Heroes

Cemetery Girls

The skies weren't always black,

But the bodies burned and the ashes rose

We're still burning

You came to place the wreath on the headstone of your father's grave

The soil soaked with tears and blood my dear nobody's safe

Do you hear me?

Did you say that we would make it out?

Look into my eyes the world is over now

Cemetery Girls

We will rise tonight while they are dying slowly

Cemetery Girls

Lovely widows of a broken world

Cemetery Girls

The cemetery line has wrapped itself around the world

Songs of desperation pouring out of all the little girls

We're still screaming

Did you pray? Well you can't stop it now

Why would you waste another word on God?

Cemetery Girls

We will rise tonight while they are dying slowly

Cemetery Girls

Lovely widows of a broken world

Cemetery Girls

I am the devil and I've come to do the devil's work

Children burning, demons marching on

I am the devil and I've come to do the devil's work

Demons marching, blood is streaming

I am the devil and I've come to do the devil's work

Death seduces generations

Cemetery Girls

We will rise tonight while they are dying slowly

Cemetery Girls

Lovely widows of a broken world

Cemetery Girls
