Death Sound Blues

I hear that death sound, baby

Oh, like an echo in my brain

I hear that death sound, baby

Oh, like an echo in my brain, brain

Well, there's a part of us dying

You know that things will never be the same

Ah, never be the same.

I feel the black nails a-poundin' now

Yes, into the coffin of our love

Hear the black nails a-poundin' now

Yes, into the coffin of our love

Well, like a black shrouded hunter now

Don't you know that I have killed a snow white dove

Oh, I've killed the dove.

Well, the time sands keep a-fallin' now

On towards our ending day

Yeah, the time sands keep a-fallin'

Towards our ending day

I see the minutes chasing the hours

Yes, to the words that we should say

Ah, we should say.
