lyrics

These days creep on
’till were drinkin’ again
As the the night settles in
we will be drinkin’ with friends
‘Till the sun comes up
we will be happy again

When we dance in the dust of the dead
We will dance in the dust of the dead

We are all just living
’till it happens again
These old snakes slither
as it happens again
Our dreams all wither
we will be happy again

When we dance in the dust of the dead
We will dance in the dust of the dead

We wake up knowing
Everything ends
We bury the bodies
that have paid for their sins
Sure we’re gonna miss ‘em
we will be happy again

When we dance in the dust of the dead
We will dance in the dust of the dead
