Dropkick Murphys Curse Of A Fallen Soul Lyrics

Another wake, another time,
a premature goodbye
I've watched you grow and
I've seen you pass
I always knew it wouldn't last
Together now we mourn the loss
and remember all the fun
We'll drink the beer and hangout where
death took another son
So all for one and one for
all do we ever wonder why
Though reasons clear, this friend so dear
was taken before his time

-CHORUS-
So may this round
be on the corpse of a dead man
With a toast that tells
of a love you never shared
So as we dance on the grave
of the misbehaved
Raise your glass and
sing the praise of a fallen soul

Many bow their heads
for this man they knew so well
With solemn thoughts
they drink and drug for a resurrection
(Facing death you fear no danger)
While Mothers shed their tears
through a veil of desperation
These friends of vicious
breed raise holy hell

-CHORUS-
So may this round
be on the corpse of a dead man
With a toast that tells
of a love you never shared
So as we dance on the grave
of the misbehaved
Raise your glass and
sing the praise of a fallen soul

How many times can fate be chanced,
the dice be rolled
Is their no path of least
resistance for the bold
(Never sought and rarely taken)
Shocked and dismayed
at how it stole his life
When this fateful course
of action takes its toll

-CHORUS-
So may this round
be on the corpse of a dead man
With a toast that tells
of a love you never shared
So as we dance on the grave
of the misbehaved
Raise your glass and
sing the praise of a fallen soul

So may this round
be on the corpse of a dead man
With a toast that tells
of a love you never shared
So as we dance on the grave
of the misbehaved
Raise your glass and
sing the praise of a fallen soul

Now let's all gather round
in our costume suits and ties
Telling now this soul was
a source of inspiration
(Love him now, he lives no longer)
But you never tell the tales
of the times you turned your back
On this friend who never
found the righteous path

So may this round
be on the corpse of a dead man
With a toast that tells
of a love you never shared
So as we dance on the grave
of the misbehaved
Raise your glass and
sing the praise of a fallen soul
