Lyrics
[Verse 1] Ring around the rosery
Pockets full of poisonry
Ash to ash and dust to dust you all fall down
Tiny hands grasp faded fate
Cold circles, circling around and around
The hush before the curse
I bow to no man, nor god
Just to blackened dirt
Scars so deep, they splinter
I carve my own hurt
One word
Silence
Cracked bones and crimson crime
Every plea gone unheard
[Chorus] Don’t bury me in earth
Burn my corpse, let me ride the wind
Don’t try to save my soul
No soul left within
Don’t bury me in earth
Scatter what I was, don’t begin again
Let the wind be my only friend
Let the wind be my only friend
[Verse 2] Do not attempt to save my soul for it does not exist
Broken vessel, hollow chest
Empty eyes, the void persists
I am nothing, I am less
Did you hear the laughter?
Did you feel the fall?
Ashes on your tongue
Writings on the wall
Cinders, fallen from my skin
A single word. Begin
Never bowing
Never breaking
Never breathing in regret
Never bowing
Never breaking
Nothing left to forget
[Chorus] Don’t bury me in earth
Burn my corpse, let me ride the wind
Don’t try to save my soul
No soul left within
Don’t bury me in earth
Scatter what I was, don’t begin again
Let the wind be my only friend
Let the wind be my only friend
[Bridge] All my poison, all my pain
Let it spiral, wash away
All your warnings, all their prayers
Nothing in my hollow gaze
Ring and circle, call my name
Nothing stays, nothing stays
[Chorus] Don’t bury me in earth
Burn my corpse, let me ride the wind
Don’t try to save my soul
No soul left within
Don’t bury me in earth
Scatter what I was, don’t begin again
Let the wind be my only friend
Let the wind be my only friend
[Outro] Ride the wind, now I’m gone
Echo empty, moving on
Ride the wind, now I’m gone
Let the wind be my only friend
