Skillet Dead Man Walking

[Intro: John Cooper]

Bring out the dead, the dead

Bring out the dead man

 

[Verse 1: John Cooper]

Like a nightmare, terrorized

Ah-ah-ah a-ah

Try to run but I'm paralyzed

Ah-ah-ah a-ah

 

[Refrain: John Cooper]

Blaze with the rage I'm caged in flames of fire

Blaze like a beast to feast on my desire

Break, make me human, you can take me higher

Make the nightmare end

 

[Pre-Chorus: Jen Ledger]

Make me something real

 

[Chorus: John Cooper]

I'm feeling dead inside

Waiting to come alive

I'm just a dead man walking

I need electric shock

Your love's the lightning rod

Wake up the dead man walking

Without love, not enough

Gotta taste, gotta touch you to feel you

Like fire in my veins

I'm feeling dead inside

Waiting to come alive

I'm just a dead man walking

I'm just a dead man walking

 

[Post-Chorus: John Cooper]

Bring out the dead, the dead

Bring out the dead man

Bring out the dead, the dead

Bring out the dead man

 

[Verse 2: John Cooper]

Bag of bones but I got no blood

Ah-ah-ah a-ah

Coming forth like Lazarus

Ah-ah-ah a-ah

 

[Refrain: John Cooper]

Blaze with the rage, I'm caged in flames of fire

Blaze like a beast to feast on my desire

Break, make me human, you can take me higher

Make the nightmare end

 

[Pre-Chorus: Jen Ledger]

Make me something real

 

[Chorus: John Cooper]

I'm feeling dead inside

Waiting to come alive

I'm just a dead man walking

I need electric shock

Your love's the lightning rod

Wake up the dead man walking

Without love, not enough

Gotta taste, gotta touch you to feel you

Like fire in my veins

I'm feeling dead inside

Waiting to come alive

I'm just a dead man walking

I'm just a dead man walking

 

[Bridge: John Cooper]

I'm waking up in a field of souls

My hands are twitching but my heart is cold

Can't stop from falling

Look out below

 

[Pre-Chorus: John Cooper]

Bring out the dead, the dead

Bring out the dead man

Bring out the dead, the dead

Bring out the dead man

 

[Chorus: John Cooper]

I'm feeling dead inside

Waiting to come alive

I'm just a dead man walking

I need electric shock

Your love's the lightning rod

Wake up the dead man walking

Without love, not enough

Gotta taste, gotta touch you to feel you

Like fire in my veins

I'm feeling dead inside

Waiting to come alive

I'm just a dead man walking

I'm just a dead man walking

 

[Post-Chorus: John Cooper]

Bring out the dead, the dead

Bring out the dead man

Bring out the dead, the dead

Bring out the dead man
