Headstone Lyrics by Lowist

Distance & Motion

2021

[Verse 1]
Digging up the roots in the forest where I am from
Breaking down a wall to find myself behind another one
I'm gone, so long
This won't be goodbye
I just can't stick around here
I'm too scared to die

[Pre-Chorus]
Asleep beneath the sun, don’t let the moon slip away
Hide from my brain
I'm the one who has to deal with being crazy here
This loop that I'm in goes from numbness to spiders all over my skin

[Chorus]
I'd rather be alone than freezing
Stranded with my own worst demons
I'm better on the road, I feel it in my bones
I'm not looking for a homе for my headstone
I’m not looking for a home for my hеadstone

[Verse 2]
I am distance, engrained when I was born
I am motion, a constant back and forth
You see these endless skies beneath my eyes
The roads that I’ve crossed
The mountains I climb

[Pre-Chorus]
That is my heart on every eastbound freight train
Moving like drugs through these westbound black veins
I will never feel, I will never feel safe
I know I'm, I know I’m going to break

[Chorus]
I'd rather be alone than freezing
Stranded with my own worst demons
I'm better on the road, I feel it in my bones
I'm not looking for a home for my headstone
With a heart that's cold, I'm a monument so old
It's nothing I don't know, the vines are overgrown
But I'm not looking for a home for my headstone

[Bridge]
The galaxy and her arms
Covered in freckles and scars
(And scars)
The galaxy and her arms
Covered in freckles and scars

[Chorus]
I'd rather be alone than freezing
Stranded with my own worst demons
I'm better on the road, I feel it in my bones
I'm not looking for a home for my headstone
With a heart that's cold, I'm a monument so old
It's nothing I don't know, the vines are overgrown
But I'm not looking for a home for my headstone

[Outro]
(I'd rather be alone than freezing)
I’m not looking for a home for my headstone
(Stranded with my own worst demons)
I’m not looking for a home for my headstone
I’m not looking for a home for my headstone
I’m not looking for a home for my headstone
