I'm in a cold and lonely tomb Surrounded by darkness in my newfound home I'm not alone, anymore, alone, anymore I'm looking back at yesterday I do remember my escape and what I had to do Have to do, don't you see, don't you see Heads on the wall, I'm looking at Heads on the wall, dead yet alive Heads on the wall I'm looking at heads on the wall, heads Did you know if you die in a graveyard The soul can't escape if you lose your head But it lives on in the brain, in your brain Don't you see, don't you see Heads on the wall, I'm looking at Heads on the wall, dead yet alive Heads on the wall I'm looking at heads on the wall Last night when I climbed the cemetery gate I saw a man digging in the ground Working the late shift, it was the gravedigger Jeremiah had worked here for years Already had one foot in the grave With my help, we got in the other I can't believe he wasn't stronger Mary, the hooker was coming to church To let the reverend fill up her purse Jesse Bell, may his soul rest in hell No one must find out, no one must tell Heads on the wall, I'm looking at Heads on the wall, dead yet alive Heads on the wall And they're staring at me, and me, and me No one comes and leaves again I've got to make sure no one knows where I am Especially that man, I remember I can't get rid of those voices
