Dead Man Lyrics by Overkill

Necroshine

1999

[Intro: Vocalizing]

[Verse 1]
Well, it seems like a dead man
Stickin' to you
And it seems like his last thoughts
Are stuck to your shoe

[Pre-Chorus]
Seem like a dead man
Stickin' to you
Seem like a dead man
Stuck to your shoe
Seem like a dead man
Stickin' to you, yeah
Seems like a dead man
Stickin' to you

[Chorus]
D-d-d-dead man, hold me near
With all that you hold dear
I can shut my eyes down tight
And make you disappear
Then I fall down

[Refrain: Vocalizing]

[Verse 2]
Well, it seems like tomorrow
Is yesterday's news, yeah
And it seems like you can't win
Can't win for losin'

[Pre-Chorus]
Seems like a dead man
Stickin' to you
Seems like tomorrow
Is yesterday's news, yeah
Seems like a dead man
Stickin' to you
Seems like a dead man
Stickin' to you

[Chorus]
D-d-d-dead man, what got you here?
A little wrinkled, little smeared
I can shut my eyes down tight
And make you disappear
Then I fall down

[Bridge 1]
My eyes hang from their sockets
I wear a ball and chain
Can you hear the rockets
Exploding in my brain?
They go...

[Bridge 2]
I feel the insecurity
I feel the sting of pain
The upside of insanity
I side with the insane
They go...

[Bridge 3]
They come across the black and white
They ravage me with fear
I can close my eyes down tight
And make them disappear

[Pre-Chorus]
You know I feel like a dead man
Dead man, dead man
Feel like a dead man
Dead man, dead man
You know I think I'm a dead man
Dead man, dead man
Feel like a dead man
Dead man, dead man

[Chorus]
D-d-d-dead man, what got you here?
A little wrinkled, little smeared
I can shut my eyes down tight
And make you disappear
D-d-d-dead man, hold me near
With all that you hold dear
I can shut my eyes down tight
And make you disappear
Then I fall down
