about

'Louis, sometimes dead is better. The Indians knew that. They stopped using that burial ground when the ground went sour. Don't think about doing it, Louis. The place gets holier, but the place... is evil.'
- Jud Crandall (Pet Sematary, 1989)

Pet Sematary is the first of several tracks we will release that pay homage to our favourite horror movies. (In this instance, a favourite book, too.)

lyrics

Don’t do it don’t do it don’t do it I don’t want to come back
Reeking of earth heavy with curse

Don’t bury me at the Indian Burial Ground
Don’t bury me at the Indian Burial Ground
The ground is sour sour will be my mound

Remember remember what Jud said
Sometimes it’s better to be dead

If you climb the deadfall
If you don’t look down or back

If you follow the Wendigo's gobbling laugh
If you put me down in the sour sour soil
It won’t be the me you know that comes back

Don’t bury me at the Indian Burial Ground
Don’t bury me at the Indian Burial Ground
The ground is sour sour will be my mound

Remember, remember what Jud said
Sometimes it’s better to be dead

Let the moss grow thick on my skin
Don’t bring me through the pine and spruce again

Don’t take me past the weathered arch
And the graves of scrapwood and tin

Leave me where I lie
I don’t want to walk again
