Dig a grave, dig a grave in the name of the dead gone Have a rave, a parade, as we dance to a funeral song See we don't know We don't know where we go in the black beyond We let 'em go in the undertow, 'cos they won't respond
So light a flame and fly, and take 'em far away We're never really alone, there's a place where we all belong
So sing along to every lyric never written Eyes are wide, alight and white We slip and slide around the sun Speaking in tongues that flow inside us, never bitten Ghosts are here, then disappear The sounds we hear mix into one
Trip away, trip away as we play in the burial We burn away to make the flame a fire And what you say What you say's not a prayer in the festival We all decay and corpse-paint the choir
So sing a song for all the souls that we've forgotten All alive, we jig and jive To dip and dive out of the dark Go splash a drop of alcohol on all their coffins All aware the atmospheres are everywhere Under the arc
So sing along to every lyric never written Eyes are wide, alight and white We slip and slide around the sun Speaking in tongues that flow inside us, never bitten Ghosts are here, then disappear The sounds we hear mix into one
