You Can`t Buy Back The Dead Lyrics

You Can`t Buy Back The Dead lyrics

Marketing new miracles to keep us off the streets

Some fall by the wayside uninvited to the feast

Welcome home the vulture men to pick the bodies clean

cover up and sanitise the cruel and the obscene

but you can't take it with you

or pay god to forgive you

you can't buy back the dead and gone



No you can't take it with you

or pay god to forgive you

The war machine still rumbles on



Human vermin fighting over rotting meat

top dogs in designer clothes delight in their deceit

Make god in your likeness, stifle intellect

Arrogance is worshipped in the gutter press



Carve up other countries with your butchers knife

who cares when the profit justifies the price?



but you can't take it with you

or pay god to forgive you

you can't buy back the dead and gone



Enough's never enough

Absolute power will corrupt

The war machine still rumbles on
