The Corpse That You Are
|
||
| I open the cellar door | ||
| And I see you lying there perfectly still | ||
| And I see you lying there | ||
| Perfectly still | ||
| Perfectly still | ||
|
I rush to your shallow side |
||
| and I see your milky eyes | ||
| Looking away | ||
| Pupils so open wide | ||
| I'm sure you can see every word that I say | ||
|
Oh don't you worry now |
||
| We won't let you fall | ||
| Humbled to high exalt | ||
| Exalted to fall to the chaos that grows | ||
| It's OK it's not your fault | ||
| But I reckon I'll never let go | ||
|
Cause after we prop you up |
||
| And we put a lit cigarette in your mouth | ||
| Everyone gets a turn | ||
| Dancing a jig with the corpse that you are | ||
|
Oh don't you worry now |
||
| We won't let you fall | ||
|
Would you like some flowers now |
||
| Can we light some candles and watch them burn out? | ||
| Whatever the time allows | ||
| While put my cigarettes out in your mouth | ||
| Oh, don’t you worry now | ||
| We won't let you fall
