lyrics

Once a thousand dead
Swirled around my head asking why
No one else could see them
They didn’t even try

How I wish that I could satisfy the voice of a single one
There is nothing I could do
Not one thing under the sun
There is nothing I could do
That aint already done

Try to shield my eyes behind the wall of stone
Still the call from above the sky
Aint never gonna leave me alone

How I long to satisfy the voices of each and every last one
There is nothing that I could do
That aint already done
Oh I can’t deal with it anyway
And so I turn my back and run
Run

How I wish that I could satisfy the voices of every last one
There is nothing I can do
That aint already done
There aint one thing that I can do under this or any sun

Still a thousand ghosts
Swirl around my head asking why
Nothing I can say so I don’t even try
No I don’t even try
I don’t even try
