Dead Man's Bones – Buried in Water Lyrics 9 years ago
This song seems to go hand-in-hand with the movie "Lost River", directed by Ryan Gosling, a member of Dead Man's Bones. As for the meaning of the lyrics, I cannot say, but the town mentioned in the song seems to parallel a town that was flooded when a dam was destroyed. The main character leaves his mother and his younger sibling behind as he ventures out onto the water during the night to dive down to the town below. Perhaps the "Devil" in the song is referencing Matt Smith's character, Bully.
