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
