Theater of the Dead Lyrics by Tulip (WEARETULIP)

High Strangeness

2020

[Intro]
She wore a yellow ribbon
As she watched me beg for bread
Their voices raised an octave
In the Theater of the Dead
A land of deepest shade unpierced
By our human thought
The dreary regions of the dead
Where all things are forgot
[Pre-Chorus]
How then shall I leave my tomb?
With triumph or regret?
A fearful or a joyful doom?
A curse or blessing met?
Soon as from the earth I go
What will become of mе?
Eternal happiness or woe
Must thеn my portion be
[Refrain]
(Thick fresh claw marks)
(Tied with ribbon)
(Nailed by barbed wire)
(Now immortal)
[Chorus]
Who can appease the doubt that tears upon my anxious breast?
Shall I be with the damned cast out
Or numbered with the rest?
Oh souls who are so cruel to me
Keep your eyes ahead
Watch the fog is dark and thick
In the Theater of the Dead
[Refrain]
(Thick fresh claw marks)
(Tied with ribbon)
(Nailed by barbed wire)
(Now immortal)
[Chorus]
Who can appease the doubt that tears upon my anxious breast?
Shall I be with the damned cast out
Or numbered with the rest?
Oh souls who are so cruel to me
Keep your eyes ahead
Watch the fog is dark and thick
In the Theater of the
[Pre-Chorus]
How then shall I leave my tomb?
With triumph or regret?
A fearful or a joyful doom?
A curse or blessing met?
Soon as from the earth I go
What will become of me?
Eternal happiness or woe
Must then my portion be
[Bridge]
(Wipe the stain of medicine)
(Gently, swiftly, from my chin)
(Eyes are lusterless and cool)
(Dim lit shadows play the fool)
[Chorus]
Who can appease the doubt that tears upon my anxious breast?
Shall I be with the damned cast out
Or numbered with the rest?
Oh souls who are so cruel to me
Keep your eyes ahead
Watch the fog is dark and thick
In the Theater of the Dead
[Outro]
Wipe the stain of medicine
Gently, swiftly, from my chin
Eyes are lusterless and cool
Dim lit shadows play the fool
