Sage the Stage Lyrics

Hail the victorious dead is the song I used to sing

Whenever I'd remember you and all of the excuses your memory would bring

I try to think of what we had in common save the needle but I can't think of a damn thing

Be gone ye demons to eternal damnation

Long live the kings and queens

There's blood in the water

Creatures in the sea

What'd we ever do to make believe

It's been so long I believe

We hurt ourselves to feel and only smile when we bleed

There's blood in the water

Creatures in the sea

What'd we ever do to make believe

It's been so long I believe

We hurt ourselves to feel and only smile when we bleed

Miss east coast, ghost roast, brought me close and let herself in

I wrote this music the very night she overdosed and quit living

Death filled my house and lurked all the days following

I've cried over dead bodies just to hold on to something

A man I called crew left hanging dead and blue

Owed the wrong people too much, too soon and was way past due

I watched his soul leave the earth in the form of a white balloon

A needle in my arm I danced with ghosts and dead till morning

As addiction grew, who knew

Bloods in the water

Creatures in the sea

What'd we ever do to make believe

It's been so long I believe

We hurt ourselves to feel and only smile when we bleed

Moving forward is the only way from here

Sing a song, right a wrong, maybe even shed a happy tear

I've loved, I've lost, I've paid the cost and I'm not ashamed my dear

A farewell to arms and a grateful goodbye to all of them

With no fear

There's blood in the water

Creatures in the sea

What'd we ever do to make believe

It's been so long I believe

We hurt ourselves to feel and only smile when we bleed

There's blood in the water

Creatures in the sea

What'd we ever do to make believe

It's been so long I believe

We hurt ourselves to feel and only smile when we bleed
