Grave Digger Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I can't run to you, father
I need love
I can't talk to you, mother
I know it's got you caught up
[Pre-Chorus]
But your sweet sinless sensation is not my style
And I'm not givin' up
[Chorus]
But tell me if I run away, how long will I bleed?
So, tell me if I run away, how long will I bleed?
[Verse 2]
Colors blend
They're all black and white
Goddamn it, I cannot bend
I'm all shriveled inside
[Pre-Chorus]
But your sweet sinless sensation is not my style
And I'm not givin' up
[Chorus]
So, tell me if I run away, how long will I bleed?
Tell me if I run away, how long will I bleed?
I can't run to you, father
I need love
I can't talk to you, mother
I know it's got you caught up
[Pre-Chorus]
But your sweet sinless sensation is not my style
And I'm not givin' up
[Chorus]
But tell me if I run away, how long will I bleed?
So, tell me if I run away, how long will I bleed?
[Verse 2]
Colors blend
They're all black and white
Goddamn it, I cannot bend
I'm all shriveled inside
[Pre-Chorus]
But your sweet sinless sensation is not my style
And I'm not givin' up
[Chorus]
So, tell me if I run away, how long will I bleed?
Tell me if I run away, how long will I bleed?
[Verse 3]
Ain't no point in tryna pick me up when I'm down
Yeah, you can stick out your hand
And you can lean towards the ground
[Bridge]
I'll be tryna suck all of the liquid out the dirt
Tryna catch a curve, diggin’ my own grave
Ooh, mama
I'll be tryna suck the liquid out the dirt
Tryna catch a curve, diggin' my own grave
Ooh, mama
[Pre-Chorus]
But your sweet sinless sensation is not my style
And I'm not givin' up
[Chorus]
So, tell me if I run away, how long will I bleed?
Tell me if I run away, how long will I bleed?
Ain't no point in tryna pick me up when I'm down
Yeah, you can stick out your hand
And you can lean towards the ground
[Bridge]
I'll be tryna suck all of the liquid out the dirt
Tryna catch a curve, diggin’ my own grave
Ooh, mama
I'll be tryna suck the liquid out the dirt
Tryna catch a curve, diggin' my own grave
Ooh, mama
[Pre-Chorus]
But your sweet sinless sensation is not my style
And I'm not givin' up
[Chorus]
So, tell me if I run away, how long will I bleed?
Tell me if I run away, how long will I bleed?
