Lyrics Here Come the Dead - The Veils

Here Come the Dead

Well listen up 'cause here they come
They’re climbing out one by one
They’re climbing all down your halls
They’re seeping in through your walls
You’ll want to laugh, but you’ll cry instead
Here come the dead
Well you’ve got nothing when you ain’t got time
They’ll strike you down right in your prime
Blood and guts on your knees
It all went nuts — I’ll tell you that for free
The sky is black, the moon is red
Here come the dead
A ceaseless fire and an endless rain
Are gonna flush us apes back down the drain
We’re all hanging on, hog-mad with fear
It’s Pandaemonium in here
We prayed for Heaven, but we got this instead
Here come the dead
The end is coming, well just you wait
We prayed for mercy about a minute too late
Oh my Lord, set me free
I once was blind but now I see
It all added up just like they said
Here come the dead
Now L. Ron Hubbard and Pope John Paul
Are both out walking around them all
Ingrid Bergman and Steve McQueen
Are making trouble everywhere they’ve been
Go shoot the dogs and put the kids to bed
‘Cause here come the dead
