[Intro: Charlie Scene] Hold on, holy ghost Go on, hold me close Better run, here we come It's the day of the dead
[Verse 1: Johnny 3 Tears] We come from a world of oblivion, bad dreams I got all I need strapped right to my hamstring I'm not really bad, I'm just made up of bad things I'm really not a mad man, the voices keep asking Born with a soul that don't wanna be saved Every time I look around I see what a fiend made Every time I die, I hope they're diggin' up my grave An undead one, like the flag that I wave I'm not afraid to cross on this cocaine sickness I'm not afraid to die, let the good book witness I ask and get none, nope, no forgiveness The day of the dead and you're on our hit list So come all you misfits! Bitch you're on our hit list!
[Chorus: Danny] Hold on, holy ghost (hold on) Go on, hold me close (go on) Better run, here we come It's the day of the dead Hold on, holy ghost (hold on) So long to the ones you know (so long) Better run, here we come It's the day of the dead
[Verse 2: Charlie Scene] This is exactly what has to be done, it happened so gradually It's like I magically happened to be this phantom that candidly Let's his dagger cut jaggedly While you're gaspin' so rapidly While you gag on this rag I see you all laughin' so happily It's ok to get startled and be afraid of the dark I'll just wait here to swallow your soul and tear you apart And I've already started, there ain't no savin' your heart This is the day of the dead, this ain't no day in the park Here I come, here I come, grab your guns and crossbows And run, better run from the skull and crossbones The song has begun, yeah, it's hard to swallow When I'm done, I ain't done, 'cause it's hell that follows Now get ready for sorrow ‘Cause it's hell that follows
[Chorus: Danny] Hold on, holy ghost (hold on) Go on, hold me close (go on) Better run, here we come It's the day of the dead Hold on, holy ghost (hold on) So long to the ones you know (so long) Better run, here we come It's the day of the dead
[Bridge: Danny & Charlie Scene] When the ashes start to rise And the moon falls from the sky And 1000 candles burn into the night When the angels softly cry On the plains below the sky Would 1000 souls still pray for you and I? Hold on (holy ghost) Go on (hold me close) Better run, here we come It's the day of the dead
[Chorus: Danny] Hold on, holy ghost (hold on) Go on, hold me close (go on) Better run, here we come It's the day of the dead Hold on, holy ghost (hold on) So long to the ones you know (so long) Better run, here we come It's the day of the dead
[Outro:] Hold on, holy ghost It's the day of the dead Hold on, holy ghost It's the day of the dead Hold on, holy ghost It's the day of the dead Hold on, holy ghost It's the day of the dead
