Eddie Vedder - Dead Man

Copied!

Sailing on my every step
Inching off of the earth...
It's magnified
By the things I've done
The thing that I've become

Every lift of my hand
Coffee cup up and back
Is magnified
By the things I've done
The things I've seen, the things I've caused
I'm a dead man walking

The hammer that I once brought down now hovers over me

Casts a shadow, a cross/across onto me

The hallways are all mocking me
What I've become they're all mocking me

I'm a dead man walking. A dead man walking. A dead man
Walking
I'm a dead man walking. Dead man walking. Dead man
Walking
