Lyrics

Obituary Blues
© 2012 Sahlen/Starburst


(chorus)
Obituary blues
Has got me on the run
Lost eternal cruise
Father's only son
Victim of the night
Outcast to be shunned
Obituary blues
Has got me on the run

Death is such a bummer
Hadn't finished it yet
Quest as a new comer
Ended with regret
Tragedy strikes close
Misery runs deep
Misfortune rules the day
Final rest in peace

(chorus)
Obituary blues
Has got me on the run
Lost eternal cruise
Father's only son
Victim of the night
Outcast to be shunned
Obituary blues
Has got me on the run

Pall bearers grief wearers
Reading what's been said
Talking to myself
Lost in mourners' heads
Breathless all alone
Angel of the night
Memories fading
Scattered in the light

(repeat chorus)

(bridge)
A thousand tears a million deaths
Millennia of sleep
A thousand years a million breaths
Its death we cannot cheat

(repeat chorus)
