Words Are Dead Songtext
von Agnes Obel

I wanna buy you roses ′cause the words are dead
Follow in the blindness, on the arrowhead
For those words are dead, and you know it
Yeah, them words are dead, lower them down

Hm-mm-mm
Hm-mm-mm
Hm-mm-mm
Hm-mm-mm


Didn't know if you could deny the dead
Leavin′ them in silence, on a mouldy bed
Oh, I am numb and over
Their kingdom come, lower me down

They are dead (hm-mm-mm)
They are dead (hm-mm-mm)
Hm-mm-mm, better you are (hm-mm-mm)

Oh, don't cry for me (hm-mm-mm)
Oh, don't cry for me (hm-mm-mm)
Oh, don′t cry for me (hm-mm-mm)
Oh, don′t you cry for me (hm-mm-mm)

Lower them down in the ground (hm-mm-hm)
Lower them down in the ground (hm-mm-mm)
