Lyrics

Rigormortis

[Verse 1]

I just seen my shadow for the first time in weeks

When it's dark it's fast asleep

I turned on the lights to write this song for you

In hopes of finding peace

[Chorus]

You're with a dead man walking, and you called him your best friend

Changing your cadence in the morning, stiff and the head down

And girl I know there's, there's a certain stillness in your motion

A rigormortis, I smell the regret in your aroma, I should have noticed

[Verse 2]

Can you tell me when, and was it worth your time?

Is his chain swingin' 'bove you, did his eyes remind you of mine?

[Chorus]

You're with a dead man walking, and you called him your best friend

Changing your cadence in the morning, stiff and the head down, oh

And I know there, there's a certain stillness in your motion

A rigormortis, I smell the regret in your aroma, I should have noticed
