Shadows lay across the ground like the dead 
 Waiting to rise and fulfill what they couldn’t live 
 And you can hear them in the whispers of the wind 
 Their words slowly decay just like the corpse that lies within the dirt 

 We’ll fiercely battle death for more time 
 When in our reflecting glass we stare a stranger in the eye 
 You see this penance for our sin has only drained us of our lives 
 But we move on 

 As I lay me down to sleep I pray that my soul is in good keeping 
 As I plunge into the deep I pray for a heaven to wake up in 

 As the echoes fade in a sea of sound, I pray that you’re listening 
 As the darkness falls swiftly all around, I pray someday you’ll find me 
 As the echoes fade in a sea of sound, I pray that you’re listening 
 As the darkness falls swiftly all around, I pray that you’ll see again 

 You keep your chest hollow to keep your mind fed 
 You’re skipping ‘cross graves, you’re dancing with the dead 
 You’re wearing thin and soon you’ll be gone
