Dead Again Lyrics

I watch as the rain

Like a sheet covers over your grave

I whisper your name

Still it just doesn't feel the same

I watch as the clouds

Like blankets cover over the sun

I scream your name aloud

The birds cease their song for they are stunned

If I could have but one more day

So much more I could say

If I could have but one more day

You haven't had quite enough pain...

I listen as the thunder

Crashes and rolls round inside my brain

I lie awake and wonder

If you ever really felt any pain

I stare at the walls

Until everything bleeds away

The screaming echoes in the halls

And still part of me wants it to stay

If I could have but one more day

So much more I could say

If I could have but one more day

You haven't had quite enough pain...

Oh shovel, oh spade

Come to tear up your grave

Oh, summoning blade

To return blood to your veins

I will wind the clocks back

And the agony you lack

Will be piled upon your head

You'll wish you were dead again

Oh needle, oh shiv

It's all I have to give

Oh, the fear in your eye

You won't escape me this time

I will wind the years back

And the shame that you lack

Will be injected into your head

You'll wish you were dead again

Oh poison, oh pills

Suffocates me, keeps me still

So that I won't have to breathe

The next time that you have to leave

Find the crease in my back

Turn the shiv, a heart attack

I remember when you said

You wish you were dead again

Oh shovel, oh spade

Oh the skin that you have flayed

Time to grind the salt in

Time to recount every sin

And when your eyes, they roll back

And when your jaw begins to slack

Maybe I'll confess it then

I wish you were dead again
