Crucify the Dead

[Verse 1] The fire started long ago The flames burned out, still embers glow So charred and black, there's nothing left to burn To burn [Pre-Chorus] We had the same dream Lived life to extreme A loaded gun jammed by a rose [Chorus] The thorns are not around your head Your ego cut you till you bled You cannot crucify the dead To me you're dead, yeah [Verse 2] The future isn't set in stone Decisions past leave you alone Betrayed us all with your own selfish greed Your greed, yeah [Pre-Chorus] New soldiers now stand At your beck and command Recruited, all bought and paid by you [Chorus] The thorns are not around your head Your ego cut you till you bled You cannot crucify the dead To me you're dead, yeah [Bridge] We were like brothers with the world in our hands You always had too much to say Someday you'll look back and you'll wonder why You let it all slip away, yeah [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] Crucify the dead Crucify the dead [Chorus] The thorns are not around your head Your ego cut you till you bled You cannot crucify the dead To me you're dead, yeah
