[Chorus] Back to the little graveyard Where the quiet knows their names Scarecrow newly stitched Pumpkin King ashamed Not of the dark Of what they had to be Warped by the evils The normals set free Little graveyard Hold us while we fray We came back different Than we went away [Intro] Crown hangs loose The howl dies down He takes her stitched hand And they leave the town [Verse 1] No victory march No cheer from the stones Just two warped lovers Walkin’ home Newly sewn scarecrow Thread still wet Walks like a memory He can’t forget He made her whole He can’t make her well The normals left fingerprints Under every seam he held [Pre-Chorus] They won the night They lost the peace Evil wasn’t born here It was taught in the streets Now the king won’t stand tall And she won’t stand still The graveyard receives them Against their will [Chorus] Back to the little graveyard Where the quiet knows their names Scarecrow newly stitched Pumpkin King ashamed Not of the dark Of what they had to be Warped by the evils The normals set free Little graveyard Hold us while we fray We came back different Than we went away [Verse 2] She sits on a headstone Counts the new thread “This piece ain’t mine This piece is what they did” He tries to joke gentle Old carnival grace The grin don’t fit right On a tired king’s face He breathed her new life With a royal command The life came with echoes He don’t understand She flinches at kindness He flinches at light The town taught ’em both How a good night dies [Pre-Chorus] They wanted one evening Among milk and rain The living made a lesson Out of fear and blame So the monsters got sharper And the lovers got thin That’s the sorrow Underneath the win [Chorus] Back to the little graveyard Where the quiet knows their names Scarecrow newly stitched Pumpkin King ashamed Not of the dark Of what they had to be Warped by the evils The normals set free Little graveyard Hold us while we fray We came back different Than we went away [Bridge] He takes off the crown Sets it in the grass She leans on his shoulder Straw scratchin’ his jacket No court No choir No moon for a show Just two ruined fairytale People who know If you stitch a girl back You don’t get the same You get what the tearing Decided to make [Verse 3] Crows keep their distance Even they can tell This ain’t the old mischief This is something unwell She whispers “don’t raise them Not tonight, my king Let the monsters sleep Let me feel the sting” He nods like a man Not a myth, not a blade And the little graveyard Does the only work it knows Keeps the dead Keeps the hurt Keeps the two of them close [Chorus] Back to the little graveyard Where the quiet knows their names Scarecrow newly stitched Pumpkin King ashamed Not of the dark Of what they had to be Warped by the evils The normals set free Little graveyard Hold us while we fray We came back different Than we went away [Outro] Moon on the stones Thread on her dress He kisses a seam She don’t quite possess They ain’t the old story They ain’t clean, they ain’t well Just a king and his scarecrow Home in a little graveyard Warped And still Held
