[Verse 1]
I wore your name like ash
Under my tongue all day
Black roses in a jar
By the window, turning gray
You came in with that look
Like thunder in a veil
I knew the room would sink
If you let your eyes prevail
[Pre-Chorus]
So pull me close
Let it all go cold
If the world falls in
I want your hand to hold
[Chorus]
When I'm six Feet Under
And the bugs are eating my heart
All they'll taste is you
All they'll taste is you
When I'm six Feet Under
I won't drift very far
All they'll taste is you
All they'll taste is you
[Verse 2]
I keep your letter folded
In the pocket of my coat
A little torn at the edge
But it still knows how to hope
The chapel on the hill
Has a crack in every stone
If they come to bury me
I won't be going alone
[Pre-Chorus]
So pull me close
Let it all go cold
If the world falls in
I want your hand to hold
[Chorus]
When I'm six Feet Under
And the bugs are eating my heart
All they'll taste is you
All they'll taste is you
When I'm six Feet Under
I won't drift very far
All they'll taste is you
All they'll taste is you
[Bridge]
If the dirt comes down
Let it seal us in
I'll keep your last sweet word
Like a hymn beneath my skin
No saint, no rescue
Just your shadow in my chest
I was made to love you
Even in what comes next
[Final Chorus]
When I'm six Feet Under
And the bugs are eating my heart
All they'll taste is you
All they'll taste is you
When I'm six Feet Under
I won't drift very far
All they'll taste is you
All they'll taste is you
