What does it matter, a dream of love or a dream of lives? We're all gonna be in the same place when we die Your spirit don't leave knowing your face or your name The wind through your bones is all that remains And we're all gonna be I said we're all gonna be I said we're all gonna be I said we're all gonna be just dirt in the ground The quill from a buzzard, blood writes the word I want to know, am I the sky or a bird? Hell's boiling over and heaven is full We're chained to the world and we all gotta pull And we're all gonna be I said we're all gonna be I said we're all gonna be I said we're all gonna be just dirt in the ground Now the k**er was smiling with nerves made of stone He climbed the stairs and the gallows groaned And the peoples' hearts were pounding, they were throbbing, they were red
As he swung out over the crowd, I heard the hangman said We're all gonna be I said we're all gonna be I said we're all gonna be I said we're all gonna be just dirt in the ground Now Cain slew Abel, he k**ed him with a stone The sky cracked open and the thunder groaned Along a river of flesh, can these dry bones live? Take a king or a beggar and the answer they'll give Is we're all gonna be I said we're all gonna be I said we're all gonna be I said we're all gonna be just dirt in the ground We're all gonna be just dirt in the ground We're all gonna be just dirt in the ground I said we're all gonna be just dirt in the ground We're all gonna be just dirt in the ground
