Skeleton of a Watermelon

We played along with time as it ravaged
And tossed our bodies aside
Patience stays
You're hard to please
Maybe that's just because
I don't look good in Oakleys

You never say my fucking name
Like it's cancer to your lips
You hope to pave the dirt in my grave
Is that just how you get your kicks?

Oh, how we love to deny
Our bodies left us behind
A silver chariot token requiem
A requiem
We love to deny

When you lose your way
You can find faith in what you call fate

Take your pride and dignity
(Your pride and dignity)
They won't put your ghost to sleep
(Put your ghost to sleep)
You can keep your dreams at night
(Can keep your dreams at night)
I can make mine come alive

And I'll never leave because
Out of the blue
Oaths will undo
It's not me, it's you
I am not spent
I am not gone
I am not the shell of what's been shorn

When you lose your way
You're taunting at the consequence
It helps to put yourself to bed
You can find faith in what you call fate
As if your words could purchase truth

Take your pride and dignity
(Your pride and dignity)
They won't put your ghost to sleep
(Put your ghost to sleep)
You can keep your dreams at night
(Can keep your dreams at night)
I can make mine come alive

Take your pride and dignity
(Your pride and dignity)
They won't put your ghost to sleep
(Put your ghost to sleep)
You can keep your dreams at night
(Keep your dreams)
I can make mine come alive
(Keep your dreams at night)
