Been this way for so damn long
I can't remember what my life was like before
So much pain and so much loss
The rest of the world and myself at war
Chokin' on a past of lies and deceit
Had to swallow that bitter pill
Now I know that I ain't long for this world
There's nothin' left inside me to kill
You can't kill what's already dead
You can't kill what's already dead
You can't kill what's already dead
You can't kill what's already dead
Well I guess they all can sense it
When my negativity fountain flows
'Cause when you're up to your neck in despair
I guess it really shows
And when I'm looking down the line
I just can't see it gettin' better
'Cause nothing can change a leopard's spots
And there ain't no such thing as deader
You can't kill what's already dead
You can't kill what's already dead
You can't kill what's already dead
You can't kill what's already dead
Wastin' away in the land of the damned
Watchin' my time slip by
And even if I cared enough
I ain't got no tears to cry
And should another life lie beyond this place
I'm not sure I'd want to live it
See, I don't worry about the dead
'Cause it's the living we should pity
You can't kill what's already dead
You can't kill what's already dead
You can't kill what's already dead
No, you can't kill what's already dead
