What does it matter?
A dream of love or a dream of lies?
We're all gonna be in the same
place when we die
Your spirit don't leave knowing
Your face or your name
And the wind through your bones
Is all that remains
And we're all gonna be, yeah yeah
I said we're all gonna be, yeah yeah
I said we're all gonna be, yeah yeah
I said we're all gonna be
just dirt in the ground
A quill from a buzzard
The blood writes the word
I wanna know if I'm the sky or a bird
'Cause Hell is boiling over
And Heaven is full
We're chained to the world
and we've all gotta pull
And we're all gonna be, yeah yeah
I said we're all gonna be, yeah yeah
I said we're all gonna be, yeah yeah
I said we're all gonna be
just dirt in the ground
Now the killer was smiling
With nerves made of stone
He climbed the stairs and the
gallows groaned
And the people's hearts were pounding
They were throbbing, they were red
As he swung out at the crowd
I heard the hangman said
"We're all gonna be, yeah yeah"
I said we're all gonna be, yeah yeah
I said we're all gonna be, yeah yeah
I said we're all gonna be just dirt in the
ground
Now Cain slew Abel
He killed him with a stone
The sky cracked open
And the thunder groaned
Along the river of flesh
Can these dry bones live?
Ask a king or a beggar
And the answer they'll give is
"We're all gonna be, yeah yeah"
I said we're all gonna be, yeah yeah
I said we're all gonna be, yeah yeah
I said we're all gonna be
just dirt in the ground
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
