Michael Malarkey – Graveracer lyrics

Into the great
Wide open embrace
You better take me now
Before I escape
I found a scavenger's way
Of racing the grave

These are the years
That are said to be gold
I travel the world
Yeah, rock 'n' roll
And in my snowglobe home
I'm king of the road

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

Got my sunglasses on
'Cause I don't want you to see
I'm out of 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

Racing through 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 found a scavenger's way
Of racing the grave

These are the years
That are said to be gold
I travel the world
Yeah, rock 'n' roll
And in my snowglobe home
I'm king of the road

Come on and 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
