I see them rise From beneath the ground Life was lost but now it’s found The ghosts want somethin’ To take their turn To dance around the stone Work the fingers to the bone Hold on to nothin’
Day for the dead, To dance among the living Day for the dead To dance among the living
We find forgiveness For the wrong we’ve done Watch the dyin’ of the day Another settin’ sun We find redemption In the love that we’ve won Just a little company Until our work is done
Day for the dead To dance among the living Day for the dead To dance among the living
Who says you can’t go back? Who says you can’t go back, Back to where you started from? (are you runnin’ away?) Who says you can’t go back? (are you runnin’ away?) Who says you can’t go back, Back to where you started from? (are you runnin’ away?) Who says you can’t go back? (are you runnin’ away?)
[2x] The moon falls on the river Styx The man will meet you there Coins lay on your eyes Just to pay his fare
Day for the dead To dance among the living
Day for the dead To dance among the living Day for the dead To dance among the living
