I keep my head down to see where I step In the valley and the mire where the sun is always set With every weary stride The mud says I won't last Dead is what you are boy And dead is what you'll be Oh just let me be I fear the night The ghost comes to fight All I want is to leave this valley All I need is a dream that's good Can't stop the voices that whisper to me You would be brave I know you would My world is full now, of ghouls and wraiths I found the river but the river was full of snakes I lay down my promises sing 'til they fall asleep Dead is what they are And dead is what they'll be Let this cup pass me please I fear the night The ghost comes to fight All I want is to leave this valley All I need is a dream that's good All these voices that whisper to me You would be brave I know you would Can't stop these voices that whisper to me You should die, you know you should You are two people, you are my best In love with the devil, you've failed this test You're lost to her you were never blessed It's time to find that final rest All I want is to leave this valley All I need is a dream that's good Can't stop the voices that whisper to me You would be brave I know you would Don't think I'm ever gonna leave this valley I know now that the dream's no good All these memories and voices and violence I wasn't brave but the time was good
