Bury Me

[Verse 1]

Don’t lean on me ‘cause these bones are weak

They’re held up by friction and force

And I’m not sure it’s in me to be so mean

Can people change in any meaningful way?

We cover up

We renovate

Can you really fool the world with a fresh coat of paint

[Chorus]

Save me

I am a little lost

A real head case

Why don’t you box me up?

You can bury me in the backyard

So save me

I got nobody else

A real psycho

But I could use some help

You can bury me in the backyard

You can tell the world that you did your part

[Verse 2]

I love that music saved you and

Lord knows it’s saved me too

But songs never love you back

And you never know the person preaching to you

You can’t believe what you hear and see

History is calling me

But I was up all night and I just want to sleep

[Chorus]

Save me

I am a little lost

A real head case

Why don’t you box me up?

You can bury me in the backyard

So save me

I got nobody else

A real psycho

But I could use some help

You can bury me in the backyard

You can tell the world that you did your part

[Bridge]

I’m guilty by association

I gotta work real hard to change some minds

I want your respect but not your praise

Don’t think of me on your dying day

[Chorus]

So save me

I am a little lost

A real head case

Why don’t you box me up?

You can bury me in the backyard

So save me

I got nobody else

A real psycho

But I could use some help

You can bury me in the backyard

You can tell the world that you did your part
