What do you say to the dead

 Will you forgive me for living

 Can't believe the things that they said

 Wonderful day for a killing

 It's killing me



 What do they do with your soul

 Is it just lying there busted

 When did you lose all control

 Is there someone to be trusted

 With my mind



 Oh there's insufficient evidence

 Of what just might come after

 But sometimes out of nowhere

 There's demented sounds of laughter



 Are we all haunted by

 The ghost - imagination

 It just can't be

 I've seen them there

 Howling at the moon



 Is it just me

 Or does somebody else believe this

 Well I'm not alone

 And I'm not afraid

 There's just one way to see



[Chorus:]

 After all [etc.]



 What do you say to the dead

 Is there a place where it's burning

 It says in a book I once read

 Yes there's a chance of returning

 Turn to me



 The fundamental principles

 Say nothing of forever

 But those are voices that I hear

 Or I'm just not so clever



 It can't be me

 I know somebody else believes this

 Well I'm not alone

 I'm not afraid

 Just one way to see



 After all [etc.]
