You and me were once a fairy tale in love
No happily ever after, just a horrible disasterYou tried to drag me down, so I put you in the ground
You brought it on yourself and now this coffin fits you wellI tell my love goodbye
I watched the dirt fall by your side
You I could never trust
Ashes to ashes, dust to dustRot, rot for me, my darling, rot for me
So rot, rot for me, my darling, rot for meI carved it in your chest so you'd never forget
And I loved you to death, and I'll take your final breathI hope you understand that our story had to end
Now I lay you down to sleep
And pray the worms your soul to keepI tell my love goodbye
I watched the dirt fall by your side
You I could never trust
Ashes to ashes, dust to dustRot, rot for me, my darling, rot for me
So rot, rot for me, my darling, rot for meAshes to ashes, dust to dust
Ashes to ashes, dust to dustI tell my love goodbye
I watched the dirt fall by your side
You I could never trust
Ashes to ashes, dust to dustRot, rot for me, my darling, rot for me
So rot, rot for me, my darling, rot for me
