HEADSTONES

- Cemetery Lyrics

I got a gal who lives on the wrong side of town
I know what I want and man you know, I sure know how
It's the other side another place
I like it there no accountin' for taste
I can't think of nothin' when I'm with her
But the rain and the wind and the cemetery dirt

Went down to the cemetery lookin' for love
Got there and my baby was buried
I had to dig her up
Went down to the cemetery lookin' for love
Got there and my baby was buried
I had to dig her up

18,000 miles across nowhere land
I'm scratchin' and I'm spittin', ain't nobody listenin'
Things are kind of gettin' out of hand
There's only one point that I'd like to make
These kinds of things deteriorate
Well, it's the gospel truth man
That she's embalmed in love juice

Went down to the cemetery lookin' for love
Got there and my baby was buried
I had to dig her up, yeah
Went down to the cemetery lookin' for love
Got there and my baby was buried
I had to dig her up

Went down to the cemetery lookin' for love
Got there and my baby was buried
I had to dig her up
Went down to the cemetery lookin' for love
Got there and my baby was buried
I had to dig her up

Went down to the cemetery
Went down to the cemetery
Went down to the cemetery
Went down to the cemetery

What is the meaning behind Cemetery lyrics?


When we look deeper into its meaning, in their song 'Cemetery', the Headstones group uses a graveyard as a metaphor, a dark and bizarre location where love is sought even though it is in a morbid setting, to discard the ordinary and dark side of love. Digging up a dead partner repeatedly represents the extremes that one may go to for love even when it is already gone or hard to get. The lyrics of the song predominantly highlight heartbreak, angst, despair, love, and solitude. Concurrently, the track underlines the significance of the unconventional: love, death, and resurrection, as well as desperation and obsession. The lyrics reveal themes and images of a very mature and disturbing nature, like the digging up of a corpse and graphic descriptions of the embalming process. Such factors are inappropriate for children and thus require a rating that is restricted.
