Lyrics
Verse
In the shadow where whispers crawl
Eyes of stone watch it all
A crown of silence
Brittle and cold
The head of the dead
A story untold
Chorus
Head of the dead
Where secrets sleep
Buried in darkness
Six feet deep
Voices echo
They call
They weep
Head of the dead
The soul they keep
Verse 2
Veins of marble
Frozen in time
Truths unspoken
Tangled in grime
A cracked jaw grins
A silent scream
The head of the dead
A fever dream
Bridge
What did they see
What did they know
The past won't let go
The past won't let go
A phantom crown
A heavy throne
The head of the dead
Forever alone
Chorus
Head of the dead
Where secrets sleep
Buried in darkness
Six feet deep
Voices echo
They call
They weep
Head of the dead
The soul they keep
Outro
No breath
No name
Just empty stares
The weight of life no one dares
A shadow king
A ghostly thread
Forever reigning
Head of the dead
