Lyrics
The Dead Won't Sleep
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.
Something in the air a fever
A morbid scent is wafting over
Through the cracks it’s sneaking in
To sweeten our self-righteous dreams
Tonight the dead won’t sleep
From the outbacks of our minds
They come creeping through the night
Those who once so hastly buried
So that we don’t need to worry
Tonight the dead won’t sleep
Oh, yeah
Raven-black the godless sky
Just the fullmoons evil eye
Witness of the foulest deeds
Shining on what treason breeds
Tonight the dead won’t sleep
Look out the window if you dare
Soon they will be everywhere
Let the dead sleep say their killers
Let the dead sleep pray their killers
Tonight the dead won’t sleep
Oh, yeah
