Praying Mantis Lyrics

Uh, okay

We took your dead praying mantis to the lake in the hills

To give her a viking funeral

We took the day to ourselves to honor a friend and collect all the seashells

"That's just the way that it goes," You said that to me as you cried yourself to sleep

That's just the way that it will be, I was talking to myself at night

On the edge of the rocks, watching her die, as I thought to myself

That's just the way it'll be, woah

It's just the way that it goes, drifting off on a raft made of sticks and stones

That's just the way it'll seem, as we set her ablaze you looked over at me

And you said

"That's just the way that it will go," you were talking in your sleep at night

So far away, so long ago, just yesterday, now I'm all alone

On the edge of the rocks staring out at the endless sky

I don't want to remember that freezing day in November

That's just the way that it will be, I was talking to myself at night

On the edge of the rocks, watching her die, as I thought to myself

That's just the way it'll be, woah

That's just the way that it will be, I was talking to myself at night

On the edge of the rocks, watching her die, as I thought to myself

That's just the way it'll be, woah
