Lyrics
Hold the hand of a dead man,
Give him all your comfort.
Shield his eyes and throw your cares away for the dead man.
Pink skin, breathing, goosebumps giving you hope.
Pull the wool over your eyes if it helps you cope.
Pink skin, breathing, goosebumps giving you hope.
Pull the wool over your eyes if it helps you cope, and throw your cares away for the dead man.
Take the heart of a dead man,
Give it to another.
Breathe in life and throw your cares away for the dead man.
Pink skin, breathing, goosebumps giving you hope.
Pull the wool over your eyes if it helps you cope.
Pink skin, breathing, goosebumps giving you hope.
Pull the wool over your eyes if it helps you cope, and throw your cares away for the dead man.
Tie the shoes of a dead man.
Tie them together and let them be used again, again.
Pink skin, breathing, goosebumps giving you hope.
Pull the wool over your eyes if it helps you cope.
Pink skin, breathing, goosebumps giving you hope.
Pull the wool over your eyes if it helps you cope, and throw your cares away.
