Dead Men Tell No Tales
Dead men tell no tales
Yet the skulls like to move
Dreaded words get whispered
As they long to prove
Dead men tell no tales
Yet they haunt the living
Muttering their secrets
And never forgiving
Dead men tell my secrets
As they testify against me
Irrefutable evidence
To never let me be free
Dead men tell no tales
I claim to the jury
You would use the words of a skull
To willingly condemn me
