Gravedigger

I’m spending my time as a grave digger
Find a hole to make a bit bigger
From poison or a pulled trigger
It’s old news to a grave digger
Was a nice man from the outside
When the eyes turned, tanned his wife’s hide
Had a cold heart and a loose hand
So she asked me to make a last stand
I’m spending my time as a grave digger
Find a hole to make a bit bigger
From poison or a pulled trigger
It’s old news to a grave digger
With a soft heart and some stained hands
And a dark place for a dark man
Got my shovel down on a ground patch
Crack an egg for a plan to hatch
I’m spending my time as a grave digger
Find a hole to make a bit bigger
From poison or a pulled trigger
It’s old news to a grave digger
Weeks became a month straight
Watch a man sin watch yourself hate
A new moon and a cloudy night
tired arms put up less fight
My secret I’ll hold near
I took the step, thats clear
no turning back from what’s done
save your sympathy, I want none
I’m spending my time as a grave digger
Find a hole to make a bit bigger
From poison or a pulled trigger
It’s old news to a grave digger
