Back Down to the Grave Lyrics by DevilDriver

Winter Kills

2013

Ruin is the way!
So vicious is your gaze
It puts men down in their coffins early!

Haunted by a memory of time wasted by you
Wasted by me
Thoughts of what was meant to be!
By the way
Ruin is the way
So vicious it...

...makes them suffer!
Fucking run for cover!
You’re good from far but far from
Good intentions
Never learned those lessons!
You need confession now!

It’s irrelevant
Just what you want
Take it!

Back down to the grave
Just admit it’s not your day
You’re filthy as a thought to see
Outstretched in memory
Back down to the grave
Just admit you can’t be saved
You’re filthy as a memory
Outstretched for all to see

You’re a superstar of dysfunction!
It’s a miracle that you function!
Gonna put you in a coffin early, so early!
Haunted by the way it was
It ended because you...

...made me suffer
Fucking run for cover!
You’re good from far but far from
Good intentions
Never learned those lessons!
You need confession now!

It’s irrelevant
Just what you want
Take it!

Back down to the grave
Just admit it’s not your day
You’re filthy as a thought to see
Outstretched in memory
Back down to the grave
Just admit you can’t be saved
You’re filthy as a memory
Outstretched for all to see

Just make your move
It’s much better than
Being a marked man

[Solo]

It makes them suffer
I’ll make it out of this place
If I don’t make it out alive
At least they’ll hear my cries, hear my cries

It’s irrelevant
Just what you want
Take it!

Back down to the grave
Just admit it’s not your day
You’re filthy as a thought to see
Outstretched in memory
Back down to the grave
Just admit you can’t be saved
You’re filthy as a memory
Outstretched for all to see

Makes them suffer
Fucking run for cover!
You’re good from far but far from
Makes me suffer

Makes me suffer
Makes me suffer
Makes me suffer
Back down to the grave
