Gravity Grave Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Get Back, get back again and again
I've been here since I can remember when
My life is a boat, being blown by you
With nothing ahead, just the deepest blue

[Chorus]
To me you're like a setting sun
You rise then you're gone
To me you're like a setting sun
You rise then you're gone

[Verse 2]
Come back, come back again and again
I've been here since I can remember when
The world just spins whilst mine stands still
Nothing's changed in your gravity grave

[Chorus]

[Chorus]
To me you're like a setting sun
You shine then you're gone
To me you're like a setting sun
You shine then you're gone
Go down on your light
So bright it burns my eyes
Sounds like a perfect way
To end my life
To me you're like a setting sun
To me you're like a setting sun

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
