The Dead Don't Die
Oh, the dead don't die Any more than you or I They're just ghosts inside a dream Of a life that we don't own They walk around sometimes Never payin' any mind To the silly lives we lead Or the reaping we've all sown There's a cup of coffee waiting on every corner Someday we're gonna wake up and find the corner's gone But the dead will still be walking 'round this ol' world alone Oh, well after life is over the afterlife goes on There'll be old friends walking 'round In a somewhat-familiar town That you saw once when you looked up from your phone Nobody bothers saying "hi" And you can save all your goodbyes Stop trying to pretend that we're all not alone And the streets look so empty in the morning There'll be no one out at night for the lights to shine down on But the dead'll still be walking 'round in this old world alone Oh, well after life is over the afterlife goes on SongtexteHearts break when loved ones journey on At the thought that they're now forever gone So we tell ourselves they're all still around us all the time Gone but not forgotten, just memories left behind But the dead'll still be walking 'round in this old world alone Oh, well after life is over the afterlife goes on Oh, well after life is over the afterlife goes on Aus Songtexte Mania
