Matador
FAITH NO MORE · Sol Invictus 2015 · Track 03 of 03
Written by Billy Gould, Mike Patton
When lonesome came over me A future shadow Her ghost stood there, sang to me Farewell, so long
I'll awake you From this living sleep We'll walk the shore Where you were born And bedded me
Although I cheat for the things March forward, my son A battle beyond frozen hills Only for doubters
We will rise from the killing floor Like a matador
The stained glass A bovine ass Can see right through Every truth-soaked lie
Letters will trace every step Out of this world With every date, every date
We will be where you will be no more No more
The stained glass Or the hangman's ass Would serve you well Now we're coming back
Out of the words Of these ghosts We'll jump the gates And left to rise, we will rise
We will rise from the killing floor Like a matador
And the dead live May the dead live And the dead live What more can we give? May the dead live May the dead live And the dead live The dead live…
