Yesterday Is 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've turned into another maniac
Can feel the monkey sitting on my back
I need a vision now to make believe
Everything will turn out fine
Global media's into overkill
Guess at least we gotta pay the bill
Hear the reaper's knocking at the door
The sinking world, once so divine
When all the chips are down
We have to stick around
Yesterday is dead
It's full speed ahead
Tell me what you're thinking
Will we float or are we sinking
Mirror, mirror hanging on the wall
Will we rise, or will we ever fall?
Who is knowing what tomorrow brings?
The end of days is what it sings
While all the other sheep just stand in line
I fill my glass with pleasure, sipping wine
I raise a toast now to the ship of fools
Who thought they'd live outside the rules
When all the chips are down
We have to stand our ground
Yesterday is dead
It's full speed ahead
Tell me what you're thinking
Will we float or are we sinking
Whoa-oh
I've turned into another maniac
Can feel the monkey sitting on my back
I need a vision now to make believe
Everything will turn out fine
Yesterday is dead
It's full speed ahead
Tell me what you're thinking
Will we float or are we sinking
Yesterday is dead
It's full speed ahead
Tell me what you're thinking
Will we float or are we sinking
