Book Of The Dead

from Moon Country by The High Dials

/

lyrics

Read to me

Tell me a story

If you say the words just right

I could change for you tonight

I believe it

Read to me

Make it easy

All these twists in the plot

Have got my head tied up in knots

Please release me
Secrets I need

Secrets you can read

From my book of the dead
Page after page

You decipher every code and illustration

You read hieroglyphics

And you know every trick

To reach the other side

So come on, read to me

And I will listen

Every word that you proclaim

Is a link in the chain

That could pull me through
Secrets I need

Secrets you can read

From my book of the dead
Strange and sweet incantations

To guide me through this wasteland

You’ve got the words

You’ve got the words

You’ve got the words to make me well

(Read them out to me)
