Witherscape - Dead For Another Day lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

Dark is the day, where his thoughts betray

Weighin' on his mind, and it steals his soul

To place his trust, with memory's love

Waitin' to align, who will heal his soul?

Wait to see, for a grand return, he remains alone

Driftin' away in the twilight sky

The novelty will fade away

(Chorus)

I wish I could be dead for a day

Just to hear what all the people would say

To find out in the end, who was really my friend

And what the meanin' of life's all about

(Verse 2)

He can't feel for his heart is yearnin'

All is lost today ya can hear him cry

Sorrowed sighs through the rollin' darkness

Waitin' for the time to believe in her

Dreamer's day, when he longs to say

And take it all in stride

Sittin' alone in his prisoned mind

The jaded takes its toll again

(Chorus)

I wish I could be dead for a day

Just to hear what all the people would say

To find out in the end, who was really my friend

And what the meanin' of life's all about

(Verse 3)

Blood on the lips of his mother

Dead for a day

She warned him that this day would come

Dead for a day

Feelin' he doesn't know who to trust

Dead for a day

Sin for his heart is the color red

Dead for a day

(Instrumental break)

(Bridge)

It's time for the fainter

Just to hear pathetic cadence of cries

Pray to your savior

And you'll fear the crippled godsend of lies

Why can't you save me?

Can you feel it in my soul

(Chorus x2)

I wish I could be dead for a day

Just to hear what all the people would say

To find out in the end, who was really my friend

And what the meanin' of life's all about
