Mathew Darkman - Dance For The Dead

A guitar man for hire
I won't play by there rules
What I need I'll acquire
From a world too cruel

A new life I desire
Out of my own grave, I climb
I was born out the fire
I'm the living dead

Would you be friends of mine
When your hitting rock bottom
Try finding a friend
So I sing for the downtrodden
The dying and the dead

Pain, debt, and misery
As far as i can see
Don't know how I'm still alive
No-one tried to saved me
Life here aint any better

I was put to death for being clever
Plucked my life from me like a feather
Spirit of stone
Cracked from the pressure

Has life and death
Made you hate yourself yet
Still nothing left
But the different kinds of death

Live dieing together
Still unknowing of love
Die living alone
In the space between us

Dance for the dead
Oneday you will call friend
Dance for the dead
Today you live to defend

Dance for the dead
With all your love to lend
Dance for the dead
Still alive in your head

Still no tears in you're eyes
Falling for me
So drown in mine
Flood all the earths seas
Save our souls
Someone rescue me

A guitar man for hire
I won't play by there rules
What I need I'll acquire
From a world too cruel

A new life I desire
Out of my own grave, I climb
I was born out the fire

I'm the living dead
Would you be friends of mine
When your hitting rock bottom

Try finding a friend
So I sing for the downtrodden
The dying and the dead

So I give my souls promise
And I give my hearts pledge
To outlaws and dreamers
And life at the edge
