Dead Men

Dead men God's given them one time to reach. He's split the wall, allowed a breach. They are climbing out of death's grip. They are running out of the cemetery, out of the crypt. Life has iron rules, but they want to give you a reprieve. They beg you to transcend, beg you to believe. Listen to the dead before the fissures close Can the present grasp what the past knows? They've been let out by a caring fate Will you attend before its too late? The veil between worlds grows thin, beware, It's a hard days night, and life isn't fair Their desperate plea - don't ignore They been there, made those mistakes before. The sun is rising, they must go back They bent the rules for you, a reality hack. There's a glare in the air, impending strife. Rethink your assumptions - will you choose life?
