Cry For The Dead

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I'm in the middle of a catastrophe

I can't mourn for those behind me

I stand staring at the stones upon the ground

The tribute within the granite on the mound

I can't live without the ones I love

I am nothing without them now

You can't imagine how it feels to me

You know I won't survive this tragedy

I stand counting all the stones upon the ground

And read the names on the granite in the mound

I can't live without the ones I love

I am nothing without them now

I can't live without the ones I need

Don't know if I know how

I am shadowed by the thoughts in my own head

And I'm not ashamed that I cry for the dead

We may never heal from our history

We may never care or feel again

I walk away from counting stones upon the ground

It's so peaceful here, the dead don't make a sound

I can't live without the ones I love

I am nothing without them now

I can't live without the ones I need

Don't know if I know how

I am shadowed by the thoughts in my own head

And I'm not ashamed that I cry for the dead

I can't live without the ones I love
