Song for the Dead, Song for the Living

next song  >

I'm just a song

I can't keep you warm

I can't hold your hand

I can't heal what's torn

I can't bring back the sun

Now your days are done

I'm a pointless song

For the pointless end

Of two beautiful young men.


I'm a pointless song

For the pointless end

Of two beautiful young men


Feel my breath

Feel my pulse

Feel the warmth of my bed

Who am I to sing for the dead

I won't sing for the dead


So

I'm another song

Let me try to keep you warm

Let me hold your hand

Let me try to heal what's sore

And I'll search for the sun

Should a darkness overcome you

I'm a hopeful song

Hopeful for an end

To the suffering of young men.


I'm a hopeful song

Hopeful for an end

To the suffering of young men.


I'm a hopeful song

Hopeful for an end

To the suffering of young men.
