Sing a hymn for the dead
Because in death as in life, we are one in the same
Sing a hymn for the world
To avert eugenic errors, go
The sun sets, the light fades
Blood red, on an empty street
It's not night, it's not day
It's no more for an unfortunate soul who
Witnessed his life violently erased
From the horror of the human race
Bright futures exchanged for profit
Living half a life
Sing a hymn for the dead
Because in death as in life, we are one in the same
Sing a hymn for the world
To avert eugenic errors, go
Your life now, pay respects to your blood
Those in the vast of the grave
Unknown, unite there
Your hearts one, in moments you'll never forget, yeah
History lessons direct from the grave
Lost souls of the lost divide
Liberate your generation
Living, rotting flesh
Sing a hymn for the dead
Because in death as in life, we are one in the same
Sing a hymn for the world
To avert eugenic errors
Call out tyranny
It's probably not the second line of furious flames
Call out to be free
Sound off, be the voice of a generation
Descend, you've got a choice to make
Sound off, be the voice of a generation
Descend, you've got a choice to make
Strip away, be the voice of a generation
Strip away, you've got a choice to make
Cut away, cut away
Strip away, strip away
Cut away, strip away your chains
Sing a hymn for the dead
Because in death as in life, we are one in the same
Sing a hymn for the world
To avert eugenic errors
Sing a hymn for the dead
Because in death as in life we are one in the same
Sing a hymn for the world
To avert eugenic errors, go
