Day For The Dead Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I see them rise
From beneath the ground
Life was lost, but now it's found
The ghosts want something
To take their turn
To dance around the stone
Work the fingers to the bone
Hold on to nothing

[Chorus]
Day for the dead
To dance among the living
Day for the dead
To dance among the living

[Verse 2]
We find forgiveness
For the wrong we've done
Watch the dying of the day
Another setting sun
We find redemption
In the love we've won
Just a little company
Until our work is done
[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Who says you can't go back
Who says you can't go back
Back to where you started from (are you ready?)
Who says you can't go back (are you ready?)
Who says you can't go back
Back to where you started from (are you ready?)
Who says you can't go back (are you ready?)

[Verse 3]
The bone falls on the river Styx
The man who makes you dead
Coins lay on his eyes
Just to pay your fare

[Chorus][x2]

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
