[Verse 1] I dig the graves, I mark the names I light the fire, I feel the flames They come in silence, dressed in black I watch them break I don’t look back [Verse 2] She walks the rows before I do A veil of smoke, a blood-red hue I never knew her face or cry But every death Feels like a lie [Prechorus] She leaves no footprints Only pain I see her shadow In the rain [Chorus] Widow Maker Not my sin But I still bury What’s left of them She takes the lovers Leaves the shell Widow Maker Knows me well [Verse 3] A boy with flowers, torn and wet A girl who swears she won’t forget I hold the shovel, feel the weight Of every vow She desecrates [Bridge] I tried to warn them, tried to speak But grief is blind And love is weak She doesn’t kill She lets them fall Then marks the grave And takes them all [Final Chorus] Widow Maker I’ve seen her eyes In every mourner Dressed in lies She doesn’t haunt She doesn’t scream Widow Maker Builds the dream [Outro] So I dig deeper, past the bone She’s never his She’s never known But every grave I carve in stone Feels like her hand Feels like my own
