Song of the Dead Lyrics

I had to choke down the words that came to me

Put my faith in saving face, a pause to stop and breathe

Get it along, take a look at your faith now

What you think is stopping me is only making me strong

But you can't have false opinions on what you feel is fact

And your halls of repetition are all filled with spider cracks

I had been waiting to take my precious side

The wailing way of wasted words all wash out from your mind

Making the fall, or what you think is a stand, yeah

The crashing down of ignorance, a wave to waste it all

But you need to have a conscience to walk the devil's plane

Cause the one's who can't make choices must all suffer in his name

Done for the day and all is forgiven

Done for the day now turn out the light

It's a song for the dead sung by the living

Done in the day and done in the night

I had to walk on from the lonesome highway

One last ride I cannot take I'll make it on my own

Making the most of what may be the least, yeah

Ring out one last dinner bell so vultures can find home

But they can only take the outside, chew on brazen bone

Cause the soul of what was once there will forever carry on

Done for the day and all is forgiven

Done for the day now turn out the light

It's a song for the dead sung by the living

Done in the day and done in the night

Done for the day and all is forgiven

Done for the day now turn out the light

It's a song for the dead sung by the living

Done in the day and done in the night

Well I'm done for the day and all is forgiven

Done for the day and done in the night

It's a song for the dead sung by the living

And I'm done in the day so turn out the light
