Raise up the ghosts of the dead I won't die like them
Push past the point of raw emotion I will breathe
Exist with a broken spirit I will die complete
Ignore the angels' words enjoy that special place
Where demons speak to me
I won't pick out the lining of my coffin yet
Unless I'm sure that color satin's a perfect bet
Crushed velvet might suit me best
I'll enjoy eternity laid down to rest
Laid down to rest laid down to rest
Daily life writes the eulogy
Engraved in my tombstone diaries
Laid to rest as time goes by
Seems like even love can die
Rituals fade roses cease to be laid
We're already one foot in a shallow grave
I will love with all my fire
But you live like you're already dead
As each day fades in the twilight sky
Are we moving on or just passing by
I won't pick out the lining of my coffin yet
Unless I'm sure that color satin's a perfect bet
Crushed velvet might suit me best
I'll enjoy eternity laid down to rest
Laid down to rest laid down to rest
Laid down to rest
Laid down to rest laid down to rest
Laid down to rest laid down to rest
Laid down to rest laid down to rest
Laid down to rest laid down to rest
Laid down to rest
As each day dies are we living on or passing on
Raise up the ghosts of the dead I won't die like them
Push past the point of raw emotion I will breathe
Exist with a broken spirit I will die complete
Ignore the angels' words enjoy that special place
Where demons speak to me
I won't pick out the lining of my coffin yet
Unless I'm sure that color satin's a perfect bet
Crushed velvet might suit me best
I'll enjoy eternity laid down to rest
Laid down to rest laid down to rest
Daily life writes the eulogy
Engraved in my tombstone diaries
Laid to rest as time goes by
Seems like even love can die
Rituals fade roses cease to be laid
We're already one foot in a shallow grave
I will love with all my fire
But you live like you're already dead
As each day fades in the twilight sky
Are we moving on or just passing by
I won't pick out the lining of my coffin yet
Unless I'm sure that color satin's a perfect bet
Crushed velvet might suit me best
I'll enjoy eternity laid down to rest
Laid down to rest
Laid down to rest laid down to rest
Laid down to rest
As each day dies are we living on or passing on
