In this thought-provoking track, COIN paints a vivid picture of a man who prioritizes wealth over relationships. The lyrics convey the story of a successful individual who amassed great wealth through his business but neglected his family and personal connections in the process. Despite his materialistic success symbolized by golden lions and diamond-cut stature, he is portrayed as lonely and isolated. The repetitive phrase "richest man in the cemetery" serves as a poignant reminder of the ultimate futility of such wealth when one lacks meaningful relationships and love in life. Essentially, COIN reminds us that while success and money are important, they shouldn't come at the expense of personal connections and family ties.
Cemetery
Lyrics
He was born the fall of '58
Made a fortune selling real estate
Golden lions waited at the gate
He was lonely, but it all looked great
Never made time for the family
But he is the richest man in the cemetery
Only made time for the company
But he is the richest man in the cemetery
He is the richest man in the cemetery
But he is the richest man in the cemetery
Cut from diamonds, but he came from dust
Built a kingdom out of salt and blood
Owned a city, never saw the streets
Or the people that he'd never meet
Warm blood, cold heart
Yeah, he's all alone
He had it all, but it couldn't buy love
Yeah, he died alone
Never made time for the family
But he is the richest man in the cemetery
Only made time for the company
But he is the richest man in the cemetery
He is the richest man in the cemetery
But he is the richest man in the cemetery
Never made time for the family
But he is the richest man in the cemetery
Only made time for the company
But he is the richest man in the cemetery
He is the richest man in the cemetery
But he is the richest man in the cemetery
