One of Us Is Dead

I saw a boy's t-shirt today

It said, "one of us is dead"

He just looked me in the eyes

And cried

I saw a newspaper today

It read one of us is dead

And old man looked me in the eyes

And smiled

Maybe i'm the one who's already gone

Cold in the ground, or fast asleep

Tonight

Some days i don't know if i've grown too cold

Grown too old and left without saying goodbye

Goodbye

Maybe i'm the one who's already gone

Cold in the ground, or fast asleep

Tonight

Maybe i didn't see i was buried today

Wasting away and sleeping all alone

Maybe i'm not a man who sees so well

Knows just when his heart began to fail

When i looked in your eyes today

I saw one of us was dead

But it all began to fade

Just like before

I heard the news today

They said, "one of us is dead"

But couldn't realize the end had already passed him by
