Burial Bleak Lyrics by King Creosote

I DES

2023

Easily, I shall fail thee
No matter how hard I try
Well I've tried
You've seen how hard I can try
And greedily, at a burial bleak
I'm thinking that maybe dying's just not for me
You'll see how hard I can cling to my life
I'm glad that we cut our losses
It's a lottery win
Now we're back up on the shelf
There's no one on the Earth, no somebody else's
Pelvis that I want to crush
Breathe easily, fall back asleep
Alone and contentedly clutching a good read
To the chest that's a welcome retreat
From worrying oneself to death
I shall fail thee
No matter how hard I try
Well I've tried
You've seen how hard I can try
And greedily, at a burial bleak
I'm thinking maybe dying's just not for me
You'll see how hard I cling to my life
Other than with myself
I felt more alone with you than with anyone else
Than with anyone else
Greedily, at a burial bleak
I'm thinking that maybe dying's just not for me
You'll see how hard I can cling to my life
Greedily
