I see them rise

From beneath the ground

Life was lost but now it's found

The ghosts want somethin'

To take their turn

To dance around the stone

Work the fingers to the bone

Hold on to nothin'

Day for the dead

To dance among the living

Day for the dead

To dance among the living

We find forgiveness

For the wrong we've done

Watch the dyin' of the day

Another settin' sun

We find redemption

In the love that we've won

Just a little company

Until our work is done

Day for the dead

To dance among the living

Day for the dead

To dance among the living

Who says you can't go back?

Who says you can't go back

Back to where you started from?

Who says you can't go back?

Who says you can't go back

Back to where you started from?

Who says you can't go back?

The moon falls on the river Styx

The man will meet you there

Coins lay on your eyes

Just to pay his fare

Day for the dead

To dance among the living

Day for the dead

To dance among the living

Day for the dead

To dance among the living
