Corrosion of Conformity - Dance of the Dead lyrics

rate me

You're dead

Heard too much, know too much - don't know

if I can take it

If the system had one neck, you know I'd

gladly break it

They've got us where they want us - stuck in

this sick romance

They need no chain - it's in our brain

And we don't stand a chance

If we keep doing this deadly dance

End this sick romance

The dance of the dead

It's all in my head

Know the deal, the way we feel - those of us who care

Constant pain, the endless rain becomes

too much to bear

Feel the need to concede - pretend it's all ok

But the horror, today, tomorrow, will never

ever go away

If you give in to the deadly dance

You've got to take that chance

The dance of the dead

It's all in your head

Ain't got the time or peace of mind to deal

with the likes of you

Your narrow views, your two-bit moves just

tell me that you're through

You're dead

You're dead

You're dead

Don't give in, live the sin - let them see the sight

There's no answer in the end - live free, fall or fight

Keep in mind, that you'll find them standing in the way

Run them down to the ground - make the guilty pay

And there'll be no more deadly dance

End their idiot prance

The dance of the dead

It's all in their heads

The dance of the dead

The dance of the dead

Dead
