Lyrics

YesterdaysDead
verse1:
yesterdays news
of yesterdays dead
was yesterdays blues
yesterdays

yesterdays dead
went out with yesterdays bread
went out with yesterdays
yesterdays

and yesterdays bombs
and yesterdays wrongs
are yesterdays pain
yesterdays

chorus1:
yesterdays, yesterdays
yesterdays dead, today
yesterdays, yesterdays
yesterdays dead, today

verse2:
yesterdays lives
and yesterdays wives
yesterday's mourning
today

and yesterdays words
of tomorrows peace
become yesterdays lies
today

yesterdays deals
for yesterdays greed
lives down the drain
is todays stains

Bridge1:
to stand here and watch this all
this world spinning will we watch it fall
there must be hope somewhere out there
don't know what tomorrow holds
don't like the looks of it today

chorus2:
yesterdays, yesterdays dead
yesterdays dead, yesterdays

appegio1:
yesterdays eye
sees todays eye
is tomorrow's eye
for an eye

and yesterdays wars
is today's winners an losers
it all becomes tomorrows revenge
today

Chorus3:
4X > fade
