Song for the Dying by ThouShaltNot Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 2003

Sleep not as an island
Pillar of the trenches seven miles deep
But ground yourself with Jacob's ladder
Rocks and bridges holding back disease

And when you cannot move
Let Earth then move herself to hold you up
For if you push away her arms
They'll not return

Do you feel the blood divide beneath your skin?
Do you know a thousand battles wage within?
Do you see your own reflection when you stare into the rising water at your feet?
Alone, you cannot win

Blink if you can hear me
From across the untold miles where proud you stand
Hold on to your humility
Hold on to your life, like I hold on to your hand

Hold on to something stronger than blood
Something stronger than words
Something stronger than empty air we breathe
When weaker is all we seem to be
Do you feel the blood divide beneath your skin?
Do you know a thousand battles wage within?
Do you see your own reflection when you stare into the rising water at your feet?
Alone, you cannot win

Everything will go tonight
Earth will overflow tonight
It's all in who you know tonight
