Ballad of a Deadman Songtext
von The White Buffalo

The moon lights up over the battlefield now
With a blistering heat somehow
Lifeless limp and broken hearts are dead
They should have just stayed home instead

Stayed alive

When letter arrives
It glistens mother′s eyes

She wonders where when and why
She could have tucked him in his bed
With a kiss on a cheek and his head

Where he'd still lie


Well the moon and the stars
Can′t cast shadows on what is wrong
Well my boys are dead, they've been mislead

Nothing more

The sun wakes up, brings sparkles in the morning light
Rubs her belly, bows her head to cry
She lost him before they were wed
But he's there in her heart and her head, he′ll stay alive

Oh the moon and the stars can′t cast shadows on what is wrong
Well my boys are dead, they've been mislead

Nothing more
Well the moon and the stars can′t cast shadows on what is wrong
Well my boys are dead, they've been mislead

Nothing more

Well the moon lights up over the battlefield now
