Drums drumming in the deep
Aren’t you afraid?
Homicidal rivals on a misguided crusade
A chain reaction to be felt for centuries
Hand grenades, barricades and burning effigies so I say
Let the dead bury the dead
Let the dead bury the dead
It’s not me just something Jesus said
Down the road they go marching to their own beat
Stand aside or you’ll get crushed under their feet
Tunnel vision nihilism
It’s all the rage
As I pass by another shallow grave I mutter
Let the dead bury the dead
Let the dead bury the dead
It’s not me just something Jesus said
There’s dead men walking almost everywhere you go
The sub-Sahara to the cold white Arctic snow
They bide their time to bleed and bathe in all the red
I wish they’d dig a hole and climb inside instead and just
Let the dead bury the dead
Let the dead bury the dead
It’s not me just something Jesus said
Drums
Drumming in the deep (x8)
Drums drumming in the deep
Aren’t you afraid?
Homicidal rivals on a misguided crusade
A chain reaction to be felt for centuries
Just one fucking button brings the whole world to its knees
Let the dead bury the dead
Let the dead bury the dead
It’s not me just something Jesus said
Let the dead bury the dead
Let the dead bury the dead
It’s not me just something Jesus said
