He was alive, he was ticking like a bomb

He was living a lie, he said come on come on come on

Stare at the clay as it cracks in the ground

Unearth the madness of the newly unbound

She said



Shoot the dead



Planted like a seed that was never meant to grow

The devil's weeds creeping through the smoke

The gun was shaking sweat bled through his hands


His mind was racing was this really what they'd planned

She said



Shoot the dead



His breath was forced fear had made him pale

The moonlight's glow was dim he prayed he wouldn't fail



His heart was pounding like the rhythm of a drum

His mind was racing did they know what they'd become

She said



Shoot the dead
