[Verse 1]

Dig up her bones but leave the soul alone

Boy with a broken soul

Heart with a gaping hole

Dark twisted fantasy turned to reality

Kissing death and losing my breath

Midnight hours, cobble street passages

Forgotten savages, forgotten savages

[Chorus]

Dig up her bones but leave the soul alone

Let her find a way to a better place

Broken dreams and silent screams

Empty churches with soulless curses

We found a way to escape the day

[Verse 2]

Dig up her bones but leave the soul alone

Lost in the pages of self-made cages

Life slips away and the ghosts come to play

These are hard times

These are hard times for dreamers

And love lost believers

[Chorus]

Dig up her bones but leave the soul alone

Let her find a way to a better place

Broken dreams and silent screams

Empty churches with soulless curses

We found a way to escape the day

[Bridge]

Candy bar creep show

My highs hit a new low

Marinate in misery

Like a girl of only 17

Man made madness

And the romance of sadness

A beautiful dance that happened by chance

Happened by chance, happened by chance

Happened by

[Chorus]

Dig up her bones but leave the soul alone

Let her, let her, let her, let her find her way back home

Broken dreams and silent screams

Empty churches with soulless curses

We found, we found, we found a way

To escape the day

Whoa, oh-oh, whoa, oh-oh

Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh
