Didn't they teach you?
Everything's okay if you settle enough?
Forget your dreams
Let's pretend I'm everything you want me to be

Complicated breathing
You never had the guts just to throw me away
Life moves slow
When everything's a worse version of what you need

And I'm just the ground
That you happened to fall on
When you lost your balance walking around in the rain
And you got to your feet
Scratched your head and started to gather
The life that you dropped all around me

I can't fight for a graveyard anymore

Some people have their money
To keep their legs pumping away at the ground
What moves me is fear
That I'll always be alone at the end of the day (at the end of the day)

And I'm just the ground
That you happened to fall on
When you lost your balance walking around in the rain
And you got to your feet
Scratched your head and started to gather
The life that you dropped all around me

I can't fight for a graveyard
I can't fight for a graveyard anymore

I'm just the ground
That you happened to fall on
I'm just the ground
I'm just the ground
I'm just the ground

And I'm just the ground
That you happened to fall on
When you lost your balance walking around in the rain
And you got to your feet
Scratched your head and started to gather
The life that you dropped all around me

I'm just the ground
I'm just the ground
I'm just the ground
I'm just the ground

I can't fight for a graveyard anymore
