Graves begin to open, and souls begin to float
The ended lives are flowing, drifting as they go
The war it now has ended, the crusade now is done
The warlords now have fallen, the bishops had their fun

So wake the dead...rise from the ashes
Wake the dead...wander onward

The fallen soldiers cry out...their wish is to return
The fire burns, the rain fall soaks, when will they ever learn?
They joined a vicious battle...digging their own graves
You can't escape the massacre and you become its slave

Now wake the dead...rise from the ashes
Wake the dead...wander onward
Wake the dead...rise from the ashes
Wake the dead...wander onward

The dead will wake, they'll rise once more
They'll come from graves or from the shore
The ships and tanks oh they will sink down
But nothing stays forever...in the ground

So wake the dead...rise from the ashes
Wake the dead...wander onward
Wake the dead...rise from the ashes
Wake the dead...wander onward
