I open up this dusty tomb
And through the cracks the light pours out
I never felt myself exposed
I cannot move there's no looking back
And though the night is long and hard
There's always one thing that's for sure
When the night gets quiet and lonely
You're never sure you're quite alone
A requiem for the living dead
Another night I haven't slept
Another night waiting for the dawn
A requiem, a requiem
A requiem for the living dead
Another night I haven't slept
Another night waiting for the dawn
A requiem, a requiem
Oh how much longer can this go on
Night time and you're all alone
Your try you can't sleep at all
Wondering in the darkness
The shadows move across the wall
A requiem for the living dead
Another night I haven't slept
Another night waiting for the dawn
A requiem, a requiem
A requiem for the living dead
Another night I haven't slept
Another night waiting for the dawn
A requiem, a requiem
Oh how much longer can this go on
And through the cracks the light pours out
I never felt myself exposed
I cannot move there's no looking back
And though my body is worn and tired
I cannot sleep my eyes won't close
When the night gets quiet and lonely
You never feel you're quite alone
Did I hear another noise?
What wast that movement in the hall?
Did I see another person?
Or what that movement there at all?
Night time and you're all alone
Your try you can't sleep at all
Wondering in the darkness
The shadows move across the wall
A requiem for the living dead
Another night I haven't slept
Another night waiting for the dawn
A requiem, a requiem
A requiem for the living dead
Another night I haven't slept
Another night waiting for the dawn
A requiem, a requiem
Oh how much longer can this go on
Oh requiem, a requiem, a requiem
A requiem for the living dead
Oh requiem, oh requiem
