Backyard Skulls - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

All our secrets are smothered in dirt

Underneath paving stones, lying waiting to be told

Some stay hidden, whilst some get found

Like a long lost soul, like a skull beneath the ground

Backyard skulls, deep beneath the ground

All those backyard skulls, not deep enough to never be found

Here lies the first time that I was wrong

And there is no more sign, no X's mark this spot

The ancient encounters with foreign skin

All but perished by now, but you can't erase the grin

From those backyard skulls, deep beneath the ground

All those backyard skulls, not deep enough to never be found

Through patio doors, lies century upon century

Of skulls untold, as hushed as suburban adultery

And below our homes, and underneath the lawns we keep

White silent skulls are smiling at the hypocrisy

Backyard skulls, deep beneath the ground

All those backyard skulls, not deep enough to never be found

Backyard skulls, deep beneath the ground

All those backyard skulls, not deep enough to never be found

Deep enough to never be found
