Life Jacket

One in the way and all moral is gone
He gave it all in a note where it doesn't belong
You had it all, had it all 'til the day I was born
You don't approve, so the cause, personality's torn

You had to choose
In a shallow grave you can't move
When the dead should rise you can't lose
And the living fall and you say you can't see them at all

Look at the letter, pick it up and head down
Time to bury the past 6 feet under the ground
With no remorse, no remorse, for the deed is done
Now look ahead to the time and the riches you've won

You had to choose
In a shallow grave you can't move
When the dead should rise you can't lose
And the living fall and you say you can't see them at all

One in the sea and a one in the ground
And the dirt is still loose but the other has drowned
And only then, only then will you get what you deserve
How does it end, either way seems that justice is served

You had to choose
In a shallow grave you can't move
When the dead should rise you can't lose
And the living fall and you say you can't see them at all
You had to choose
In a shallow grave you can't move
When the dead should rise you can't lose
And the living fall and you say you can't see them at all

You had to choose
You had to choose
You had to choose
You can't move
You can't lose
