Open Casket Songtext
von Death
Open Casket Songtext
Approach the image filled with fear
As the image grows so clear
Future now takes full control
The one whose past you now behold
Touch
The flesh it is so cold
Turn away
You now have been told
Never to return
Memories will last
In the future
You′ll think about the past
Never to forget
What you've seen
People come to pay respect
Taking pictures of the dead
That is what life comes to be
Once they lived, now they′re deceased
Death is oh so strange
The past no one can change
What you can't predict
Is how long you'll exist
Open casket
Open casket
Life will never be the same
Death can never be explained
It′s their time to go beyond
Empty feeling when they′re gone
Never to return
Memories will last
In the future
You'll think about the past
Never to forget
What you have seen
What can not be real
You now believe
As the image grows so clear
Future now takes full control
The one whose past you now behold
Touch
The flesh it is so cold
Turn away
You now have been told
Never to return
Memories will last
In the future
You′ll think about the past
Never to forget
What you've seen
People come to pay respect
Taking pictures of the dead
That is what life comes to be
Once they lived, now they′re deceased
Death is oh so strange
The past no one can change
What you can't predict
Is how long you'll exist
Open casket
Open casket
Life will never be the same
Death can never be explained
It′s their time to go beyond
Empty feeling when they′re gone
Never to return
Memories will last
In the future
You'll think about the past
Never to forget
What you have seen
What can not be real
You now believe
