Crucify the Dead The fire started long ago The flames burned out, still embers glow So charred and black There's nothing left to burn, to burn We had the same dream Lived life to extreme A loaded gun jammed by a rose
The thorns are knots around your head Your ego cursed you till you bled You cannot crucify the dead To me you're dead, yeah
The future is unset in stone Decisions past leave you alone Betrayed us all with your own selfish greed, your greed, yeah New soldiers now say That your beggars collect Re-crucified and paid by you
The thorns are knots around your head Your ego cursed you till you bled You cannot crucify the dead To me you're dead, yeah We were like brothers with the world in our hands You always have too much to say Someday you look back and you wonder why You let it all slip away, yeah
Crucify the dead Crucify the dead The thorns are knots around your head Your ego cursed you till you bled You cannot crucify the dead To me you're dead, yeah
