A Nice Night In The 'Sham Ophelia Grave Guitar Scars

Ophelia Grave
Lyrics by Ben.

This song was written as an apology for how a particular person felt about another song (no I’m not saying who). Whatever Joe may try and tell you the word "fist" has no part in the title…(I'll fist your grave?)

Transcript:

10 minutes ago I turned out the lights
Put on my records then shut my eyes tight
Now my stomach is empty all pooled on the floor
So I shut four senses to open my ears more

Try to hide in the shadows but I’m bathed in light
And it burns my skin so I huddle up tight
And retreat to the darkness at the back of my brain
To all in front lay waste and set flame

Wherever I look from star to sea
Ophelia grave you’re lost from me
And from that second I can’t breathe
Ophelia grave you’re lost from me

Remember sudden vitriol in words I wrote
One night when I’d abandoned hope
And now I can’t help
The way it made you feel

So just nail back a double straight from the bottle
Of my favourite liquid death trap
It makes the music more intense
Together they vandalise all regrets

Wherever I look from star to sea
Ophelia grave you’re lost from me
And from that second I can’t breathe
Ophelia grave you’re lost from me

Wherever I look from star to sea
I dug your grave you buried me

Wherever I look from star to sea
I dug your grave you buried me
