intro: I am the dead man walking

I am the dead man walking

I am the dead man walking

...the last of my bloodline



there is a pain that burns inside

from the truth I cannot live or hide

destroying all that once was mine

it controls all that I now see

this parasite that eats away at me

my blistered soul that just won't heal

numb to all I cannot live or feel



dead man walking



and whoa again I bleed

and whoa again I bleed

I am the dead man walking

I am the last of my bloodline

I am the last...



dead... man

dead... man



the very breath of life it steals

taking all that once was real

alone I dig my private grave

and pray to the heavens that I'm saved

my shattered dreams are all but gone

I'm beaten down and stand alone



dead man walking



and whoa again I bleed

and whoa again I bleed

I am the dead man walking

I am the last of my bloodline

I am the last...



dead... man

dead... man
