Remains (Bastille Vs. Rag’N’Bone Man Vs. Skunk Anansie)

I came here for sanctuary
Away from the winds and the sounds of the city
I came here to get some peace
Way down deep where the shadows are heavy
I can't help but think of you
In these four walls my thoughts seem to wander
To some distant century
When everyone we know is six feet under

When all of our friends are dead and just a memory
And we're side by side, it's always been just you and me
For all to see

When our lives are over and all that remains
Are our skulls and bones let's take it to the grave
And hold me in your arms, hold me in your arms
I'll be buried here with you
And I'll hold in these hands, all that remains

I don't want to rest in peace
We can haunt each other's dreams
We'll fight underneath this turf
Bicker away in darkness
We'll find our way to resolve
Our banes from the lands of the living
We'll find a common ground
And fall in love all over again

When all of our friends are dead and just a memory
And we're side by side, it's always been just you and me
For all, all to see

When our lives are over and all that remains
Are our skulls and bones let's take it to the grave
Hold me in your arms, hold me in your arms
I'll be buried here with you
And I'll hold in these hands, all that remains

From dusk to dawn
My unheard screams grow silent in defeat
I know I chased a memory but you used to taste so sweet
As you faded away I realised it's all over
And nothing stays the same
But skull and bones and pain

When all of our friends are dead and just a memory
And we're side by side, it's always been just you and me
For all, all to see

When our lives are over and all that remains
Are our skulls and bones let's take it to the grave
Hold me in your arms, hold me in your arms
I'll be buried here with you
And I'll hold in these hands, all that remains
