Strangeletter - Dead Man Walking

Ashes fall around, around,
I’m ready to believe it
I’ve walked this canyon, followed it down
I hope that you can see it too
Forty days and forty nights
I was a dead man walking
For every mile and mountain
I climb I am a dead man
Walking back to you

No matter what you say
The fear shall pass away
No matter what you say
I’m a dead man
I'm a dead man
I’m a dead man
I'm a dead man

Across the edge of time
Across this narrow line
You seek and you will find
Yeah, I’m a dead man
(I will know when to face it
Give me strength to embrace it
here alone I will walk
to the end of the road like a ...)
Dead man walking
I’m a dead man
(Dead man)
Dead man walking to you

No matter what you say
If life is but a dream then I am lying wide awake
No matter what you say
I’m a dead man
(Dead man)
Dead man walking
I’m a dead man
(Dead man)
Dead man walking
No matter what you say
Yeah, I’m a dead man
