Brendan’S Death Song Lyrics
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Lyrics
Live or die before I get it done will you decide
Take my words and turn them into signs they will survive
because along time ago I knew not to deprive
It's safe out there now your everywhere just like the sky
And you I love you
you are the lucid dream you are the ride
and when you hear this you know it's your jam, it's your goodbye
like I said you know I'm almost dead
you know I'm almost gone
and when the drummer drums
it's gonna play my song to carry me along
like I said you know I'm almost dead
you know I'm almost gone
and when the moment comes
to bury me away to where we all belong
We all cross when were feeling lost
it's just the time
Could terry cry the day her lover died she recognized
because you gave her a life of real love it's no surprise
like I said you know I'm almost dead
you know I'm almost gone
and when the drummer drums it's gonna play my song to carry me along
Then we live, so every time you die,
he's in the revert sky
Lay me down, so when it's time to leave. another sun will rise...
I said Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
I said Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Like I said you know I'm almost dead
you know I'm almost gone
and when the moment comes to bury me away to where we all belong
Like I said you know I'm almost dead
you know I'm almost gone
Like I said you know I'm almost dead
you know I'm almost gone
Like I said you know I'm almost dead
you know I'm almost gone
