I Cannot Raise the Dead Lyrics by The Dark Element
The Dark Element
2017
I've been wasting away Like the Christ on the cross And I can take no more Was I too dumb to give up Or too proud to give in? Don't even care no more But I'm not here to raise the dead Hang myself in every word that you said I'm not here to share your bed There are things to forgive There are things to forget There are things I regret And all the things that I did All the things that I said Are better left for dead And I'm not here to raise the dead Hang myself in every word that was said If you want, I'll take the blame 'Cause dreams get buried every day Now there is rose on our grave and the colours have faded So why should we try to hold on? We're like dust in the wind, we are memory jaded So say what you will, say what you will for I cannot raise the dead, no I cannot raise the dead I cannot raise the dead, no I cannot raise the dead In a time before us We were both someone else And we can be again We both let wrong one in To keep the right one out And now we're both without So let's not try to raise the dead Hang ourselves in all the words that were said long ago If you want, I'll take the blame For dreams get buried every day Now there is rose on our grave and the colours have faded So why should we try to hold on? We're like dust in the wind, we are memory jaded So say what you will, say what you will for I cannot raise the dead, no I cannot raise the dead I cannot raise the dead, no I cannot raise the dead Now there is rose on our grave and the colours have faded So why should we try to hold on? We're like dust in the wind, we are memory jaded So say what you will, say what you will for There is rose on our grave and the colours have faded So why should we try to hold on? We're like dust in the wind, we are memory jaded So say what you will, say what you will for I cannot raise the dead, no I cannot raise the dead I cannot raise the dead, no I cannot raise the dead
