Dead Heroes Lyrics by Shadow Witch

Disciples of the Crow

2017

Darkness behind your eyes
Fruiting from a poison tree
The cold embrace of barren limbs
The last day you tried to be

Too many dead heroes

Martyr saint and shaman wise
Climbing Oden's hanging tree
All meet beneath red burning skies
The last day you try to be

Too many dead heroes
Scorched by fame they can't out run
Too many dead heroes
Frozen time in amber gum
Too many dead heroes
Far beyond a distant sun

Too low to raise my head
Too deep to breathe the air again
This sea floor is my bed
My sunken chest my swollen brain
Too cold to start a fire
Too dark to ever sleep again
With armor of barbed wire
I'll never have to feel the pain

But I'm gonna break
