Lyrics Michael Malarkey – Graveracer

Into the great wide open embrace
You better take me now, before I escape
I’ve found a scavenger’s way of racing the grave
Yeah, these are the years that are said to be gold

Come on and shake me up
Shake me up
Shake me up
Shake me up

I got my sunglasses on ’cause I don’t wan’t you to see
I’m outta control, I’m falling asleep
And how I’m lost in the weeds of a terrible dream
I saw a hurricane through cadaverous trees
I saw the god of the sea set his sights on me
I’ll do whatever it takes to get out of this place

Graveracing

Yeah, baby’s in Rico with the vitamin C
I saw you gallop apace and crash into me
I got a switchblade love like I was 17
I felt the savagery and I burst at the seams
And I was ready to die, I felt my ribcage creak
And then the dove of peace hovered over me

Graveracing

My body’s a mess, I’m a predator’s prey
I get out of bed ’cause I don’t sleep anyway
The most terrible dream is keeping me awake
Your heavenly arms and your heavenly face
But no heaven for me without your embrace
I found a scavenger’s way of racing the grave

Come on and raise me up (raise me up)
Raise me up
Raise me up (raise me up)
Raise me up

Racing the grave

Can’t fly till I fall, someone shake me
In my snowglobe home, strange conversations
Can’t fly till I fall, someone shake me
In my snowglobe home, strange conversations

Graveracing
Racing the grave
Graveracing
Racing the grave

Into the great wide open embrace
You better take me now, before I break
I’ve found a scavenger’s way of racing the grave
Yeah, these are the years that are said to be gold
I traveled the world, yeah, rock ‘n’ rolled
I got a snowglobe love, come on and shake me up

Come on and shake me up
Shake me up
Shake me up
Shake me up

Can’t fly till I fall, someone shake me
In my snowglobe home, strange conversations

Graveracing
