 ~VERSE~
Dear  blue sky are  you afraid to die
Do  you fear you'll never  see the morning
And  the twilight comes and  you lose your son
Does  it come to you  without a warning
 ~CHORUS~
When  the pain will stop  how will I know
When  the carbon bonds  that hold me  start to let  go
Is  there someone buried  beneath this skin
And  is he free  when I'm lost  in my coffin
 ~INTERLUDE~
 X
 ~VERSE~
Dear  moonlight  when you shine at night
Do  you fear you'll use  up your resources
With  the sun as king do  you feel for it's string
When  the higher powers  run their courses
 ~CHORUS~
When  the rain falls  down  what brings it back
Opens  the resurrected clouds  from white  to black
It's  a second birth  under this skin
My  coffin  my coffin
 ~BRIDGE~
 X
 ~CHORUS~
Resurrection  comes  but death comes first
All  of our entitlements  and rights  will drive the hearse
I'm  bleeding death  death is unmade
The  minute I lose  myself I'm saved  from my coffin
 ~OUTRO~
 X
 Hope you enjoy. Peace, Love, I'm out.
