heads on the wall

i'm in a cold and lonely tomb

surrounded by darkness in my newfound home

i'm not alone

anymore

alone

anymore

i'm looking back at yesterday

i do remember my escape

and what i had to do

have to do

don't you see

don't you see

heads on the wall. i'm looking at

heads on the wall. dead yet alive

heads on the wall

i'm looking at heads on the wall. heads

did you know

if you die in a graveyard

the soul can't escape if you lose your head

but it lives on in the brain. in your brain

don't you see

don't you see

heads on the wall. i'm looking at

heads on the wall. dead yet alive

heads on the wall

i'm looking at heads on the wall

last night

when i climbed the cemetery gate

i saw a man digging in the ground

working the late shift

it was the gravedigger

jeremiah had worked here for years

already had one foot in the grave

with my help we got in the other

i can't believe. he wasn't stronger

mary the hooker was coming to church

to let the reverend fill up her purse

jesse bell

may his soul rest in hell

no one must find out

no one must tell

heads on the wall. i'm looking at

heads on the wall. dead yet alive

heads on the wall

and they're staring at me

and me

and me

no one comes and leaves again

i've got to make sure no one knows where i am

especially that man. i remember

i can't get rid of those voices
