City Of The Dead letra

This Is The Story Of A Sad Destination

of The Little City That Once Thought It Could
where The Fallen Think They'll Be Called Heroes
little Hometown Boys And Girls Made Good
but They Don't Want You If You're Still Breathing
they're Suspicious If You're Still Alive
if You Have Dreams, Then They Don't Need 'em
this Is The Place You Come To Die

chorus:

city Of The Dead - Bow Down At The Grave And Praise The Belly Of Lead
city Of The Dead - Statues Carved In Stone With Words That Dead Men Said
city Of The Dead - The River Runs With A Hunger That Will Never Be Fed
by The City Of The Dead
city Of The Dead
oh - The City Of The Dead

the Dying Drink To Themselves In The Taverns
they Raise A Toast To What Might Have Been
but They Thirst For What They'll Never Have
while They Pray To The Ghosts Who Listen In
and Relics Stand In A Museum
just In Case Some Stranger Doesn't Know
that It's Just Another Mausoleum
the Tomb Of What Perished Long Ago

chorus

and I'm Packing My Bags And I'm Loading My Car
and I'm Joining The Ranks Of The Souls Who Ran
'cause They're Digging My Grave Down By The River
i've Gotta Get Out While I Still Can

chorus
