When We Were Alive

We closed our minds

We shut out traps

We built a house

The house collapsed

We sold the wood

And bought the farm

Now we got a place

In the dirt

In the backyard

We were stronger alive

We always smote our foes

Won in a landslide

Ran unopposed

Piss drunk on power and cheap wine

We used to waste the world

Just to waste our time

Now the spirit is strong

But the flesh is weak

Death is long

The living are laughing

Spit on our grave, we don't mind

We're bad as ash

You should've seen us in our prime

When we were the earth

When we were alive

When we were the rules

When we were the ends

Yeah we were fools

But I still had my friends

We couldn't stay

We didn't try

We didn't cry

When we were alive

When we were alive
