Oh the dead don't die anymore than you or I They're just ghosts inside a dream Of a life that we don't own They walk around us all the time Never payin' any mind to the silly lives we lead Or the reapin' we've all sown
There's a cup of coffee waiting on every corner Someday we're gonna wake up and find the corners gone
But the dead will still be walking around in this old world alone After life is over, the afterlife goes on
There'll be old friends walking around in a somewhat familiar town That you saw once when you looked up from your phone Nobody bothers to saying hi, you can save all your goodbyes Stop trying to pretend that we're all not at home
And the streets will look so empty in the morning There'll be no one out at night for the lights to shine down on
But the dead will still be walking around in this old world alone After life is over, the afterlife goes on
Hearts break when loved ones journey on At the thought that they're now forever gone So we tell ourselves they're all still around us all the time Gone but not forgotten, just memories left behind
But the dead will still be walking around in this old world alone After life is over, the afterlife goes on After life is over, the afterlife goes on
