Bastille - Skulls lyrics

[Bastille - Skulls lyrics]

I came here for sanctuary
Away from the winds and the
Sounds of the city
I came here to get some peace
Way down deep where the shadows are heavy
I can't help but think of you
In these four walls
My thoughts seem to wander
To some distant century
When everyone we know is six feet under

When all of our friends are
Dead and just a memory
And we're side by side it's always
Been just you and me for a-a-all to see

When our lives are over and all that remains
Are our skulls and bones
Let's take it to the grave
And hold me in your arms
Hold me in your arms
I'll be buried here with you
And I'll hold in these hands
All that remains

I don't want to rest in peace
I'd rather be the ghost that annoys you
I hope you can make me laugh
Six feet down when we're bored of each other
A match is our only light
It's day of the dead and
I'm Indiana Jones here
These coins sit upon our eyes
Pool our funds we'll pay the boat together

When all of our friends are
Dead and just a memory
We'll lie side by side it's always
Been just you and me for a-a-all to see

When our lives are over and all that remains
Are our skulls and bones
Let's take it to the grave
And hold me in your arms
Hold me in your arms
I'll be buried here with you
And I'll hold in these hands
All that remains

And now it's all before you
Hold me in your arms, hold me in your arms
And now it's all before you
Hold me in your arms, hold me in your arms

When our lives are over and all that remains
Are our skulls and bones
Let's take it to the grave
And hold me in your arms
Hold me in your arms
I'll be buried here with you
And I'll hold in these hands
All that remains
