Just try to destroy it Tar and feather it Set it on fire Send it away with some books and a phone And a bear named Honey For me to lose Somewhere in New Jersey Did I say me? It's less and less hypothetical Since I freed myself from your bed When my hope was water You poured it out, poured it out When my hope was water You poured it out over the dirt One way to bury something Is to bury it forever Everyone I loved Was too modern to be caught grieving To be used you have to be usable There's not a single part of you I'd put inside my mouth In a dream I held something warm It was a serpent of the past A metaphor for what we had When my hope was water You poured it out, poured it out When my hope was water You poured it out over the dirt One way to bury something Is to bury it forever ---- Hey. It's me. I just... I love you... Please. Talk to me. ---- Take my power away Make me learn to live in the dark I still wanna hide it all from you Bury this secret so far down And that's where it'll stay Oh never to be found What we had can never be I swam in your ocean Found a sunken underground Room after room The masks you wear Your Sacred shrouds When my hope was water You poured it out, poured it out When my hope was water You poured it out over the dirt One way to bury something Is to bury it forever Set it all on fire Try to destroy it Oh bury it forever
