Cry for the dead


I'm in the middle of a catastrophe
I can't mourn for those behind me
I stand staring at the stones upon the ground
The tribute within the granite on the mound

I can't live without the ones I love
I am nothing without them now

You can't imagine how it feels to me
You know I won't survive this tragedy
I stand counting all the stones upon the ground
And read the names on the granite in the mound

I can't live without the ones I love
I am nothing without them now

I can't live without the ones I need
Don't know if I know how
I am shadowed by the thoughts in my own head
And I'm not ashamed that I cry for the dead

We may never heal from our history
We may never care or feel again
I walk away from counting stones upon the ground
It's so peaceful here, the dead don't make a sound

I can't live without the ones I love
I am nothing without them now

I can't live without the ones I need
Don't know if I know how
I am shadowed by the thoughts in my own head
And I'm not ashamed that I cry for the dead

I can't live without the ones I love

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Flotsam and Jetsam is a thrash metal band formed in Phoenix, Arizona in 1982. Considered one of the pillars of the genre, they helped define the thrash sound of the 1980s with fast and aggressive riffs, dark lyrics, and an overwhelming live energy. The band has gone through several lineups throughout its career, but the constant presence of Eric A.K. (vocals) and Michael Gilbert (guitar) has maintained a distinctive sonic coherence. Among their most important albums are "Doomsday for the Deceiver" (1986), considered a thrash metal classic, and "No Place for Disgrace" (1989). Flotsam and Jetsam have collaborated with artists like Testament and Slayer, contributing to shaping the heavy metal music scene of the 1980s and 1990s. Some of their most representative tracks include "Hammer Smashed Face", "Suicidal State of Mind", and "The Price of War".
