One of Us Is Dead Lyrics by The Earlies

0

I saw a boy's t-shirt today
It said, 'One of us is dead'
He just looked me in the eyes
And cried
I saw a newspaper today
It read, one of us is dead
And old man looked me in the eyes
And smiled
Maybe I'm the one who's already gone
Cold in the ground or fast asleep
Tonight
Some days I don't know if I've grown too cold
Grown too old and left without saying goodbye
Goodbye
Maybe I'm the one who's already gone
Cold in the ground or fast asleep
Tonight
Maybe I didn't see I was buried today
Wasting away and sleeping all alone
Maybe I'm not a man who sees so well
Knows when his heart began to fail
When I looked in your eyes today
I saw one of us was dead
But it all began to fade
Just like before
I heard the news today
They said, "One of us is dead"
But couldn't realize the end had already
Passed him by
