A Rumination on Empty Years by Euclid C Finder Lyrics

Sometimes I don't want my heart to break
Added bonus if my bones don't ache

Long ago I waded the river
Thought I left you drowning within her
But that's not what I think
When I think of you
I think about the relief
Ignore the mountains of grief
And sometimes I wish
You were in my veins

Only dead men stay
Only dead men stay

Sleep for a while, don't go astray
Take in the sights and sounds, only good men stay
And if you're waiting for the perfect day
Every moment's best, as you'll soon say

Sleep for a while, don't go astray
Take in the sights and sounds, only good men stay
And if you're waiting for the perfect day
Every moment's best, as you'll soon say
Suddenly I feel my spine shiver
Feel the ghosts scratch at my liver
But that's not what I think
When I think of you
I think of times I survived
And of feelings you brought alive
And sometimes I wish
You were in my veins

Only the dead can say
Was it worth it all?

Only the dead can say
Was it worth it all?
Only the dead can say, was it worth it all now?
Only the dead can say
Was it worth it all?
Only the dead can say, was it worth it all now?
