lyrics
In the gallows by the willows, the rationale was set
What followed next was the time clock, and then the standard was met
Now as we walk through the strip malls, pushing shopping carts
It’s a logical extension to that gruesome start
With pillows and night gowns, an army asleep
Fists clenched in pockets, always dragging our feet
The living flesh is dreaming of days to come
Wide awake early morning, it won’t be long
You won’t even notice
You won’t feel the sting
We know our thing from lurking in the shadows
We’ll keep singing the same song on and on
We’ll keep stealing, lying and cheating
To see someone with all that wisdom
Did you, did you really kiss him?
I know you tremble, oh I know you shake your head in doubt
I know you lie awake in fear of what your sleep might bring
I know your dreams reveal a horror that you can not speak
In the mirror it’s all crumbling
I know you tremble, oh I know you shake your head in doubt
I know you lie awake in fear of what your sleep might bring
I know your dreams reveal a horror that you can not speak
Your time is nigh
You won’t even notice
You won’t feel the sting
We know our thing from lurking in the shadows
We’ll keep singing the same song on and on
We’ll keep stealing, lying and cheating
To see someone with all that wisdom
Did you, did you really kiss him?
Dead but dreaming
What followed next was the time clock, and then the standard was met
Now as we walk through the strip malls, pushing shopping carts
It’s a logical extension to that gruesome start
With pillows and night gowns, an army asleep
Fists clenched in pockets, always dragging our feet
The living flesh is dreaming of days to come
Wide awake early morning, it won’t be long
You won’t even notice
You won’t feel the sting
We know our thing from lurking in the shadows
We’ll keep singing the same song on and on
We’ll keep stealing, lying and cheating
To see someone with all that wisdom
Did you, did you really kiss him?
I know you tremble, oh I know you shake your head in doubt
I know you lie awake in fear of what your sleep might bring
I know your dreams reveal a horror that you can not speak
In the mirror it’s all crumbling
I know you tremble, oh I know you shake your head in doubt
I know you lie awake in fear of what your sleep might bring
I know your dreams reveal a horror that you can not speak
Your time is nigh
You won’t even notice
You won’t feel the sting
We know our thing from lurking in the shadows
We’ll keep singing the same song on and on
We’ll keep stealing, lying and cheating
To see someone with all that wisdom
Did you, did you really kiss him?
