Lyrics The Dead Don't Die - Sturgill Simpson
Oh,
the
dead
don't
die
Any
more
than
you
or
I
They're
just
ghosts
inside
a
dream
Of
a
life
that
we
don't
own
They
walk
around
us
all
the
time
Never
payin'
any
mind
To
the
silly
lives
we
lead
Or
the
reaping
we've
all
sown
There's
a
cup
of
coffee
waiting
on
every
corner
Someday
we're
gonna
wake
up
and
find
the
corner's
gone
But
the
dead
will
still
be
walking
'round
this
ol'
world
alone
Oh,
well
after
life
is
over
the
afterlife
goes
on
There'll
be
old
friends
walking
'round
In
a
somewhat-familiar
town
That
you
saw
once
when
you
looked
up
from
your
phone
Nobody
bothers
saying
"hi"
And
you
can
save
all
your
goodbyes
Stop
trying
to
pretend
that
we're
all
not
alone
And
the
streets
look
so
empty
in
the
morning
There'll
be
no
one
out
at
night
for
the
lights
to
shine
down
on
But
the
dead'll
still
be
walking
'round
in
this
old
world
alone
Oh,
well
after
life
is
over
the
afterlife
goes
on
Hearts
break
when
loved
ones
journey
on
At
the
thought
that
they're
now
forever
gone
So
we
tell
ourselves
they're
all
still
around
us
all
the
time
Gone
but
not
forgotten,
just
memories
left
behind
But
the
dead'll
still
be
walking
'round
in
this
old
world
alone
Oh,
well
after
life
is
over
the
afterlife
goes
on
Oh,
well
after
life
is
over
the
afterlife
goes
on
