Lyrics Sleater-Kinney

Sleater-Kinney

Funeral Song

Stay away from the haunted heart

Stay away from the haunted heart

Swore to yourself, make a new style

Just love the demon with the poison dart

There's nothing left to see

Turn out the lights

There's nothing left to see

Turn out the lights

Stay away from the burning house

Stay away from the burning house

To get inside, you'll never get out

Die together before the flames go out

Did it burn you baby make you scream and shout?

Did it burn you baby make you scream and shout?

Build it up just to tear it down

Nothing left but ashes of doubt

There's nothing left to see

Turn out the lights

There's nothing left to see

Turn out the lights

Put it in the ground sing a funeral song

Put it in the ground sing a funeral song

Have the neighbors over and they'll sing along

Lowering the coffin on a love gone wrong

Hey there now what did you bury today?

Hey there now what did you bury today?

Buried the love that I hoped to stay

Nothing says forever like our very own grave

There's nothing left to see

Turn out the lights

There's nothing left to see

Turn out the lights

There's nothing left of me

Just turn out the lights

No one here but me

Turn out the lights
