Текст песни Shake The Dust

I walked through the cemetery twice today Got the feeling that the dead had something to say The earth makes roommates Out of carbon based primates The grave was trying to communicate Shake the dust, shake the dust When the world you used to trust Is in pieces all around you It's not what you thought it was Shake the dust, shake the dust When your empire starts to rust Only love outlasts the living Til the dust makes you one of us Germany shot my grandpa down But he survived to love that same German town The former soldiers that he met With his American accent He only talked to me about the common ground, he said Shake the dust, shake the dust When the world you used to trust Is in pieces all around you It's not what you thought it was Shake the dust, shake the dust When your empire starts to rust Only love outlasts the living ‘Til the dust makes you one of us Someday when I'm on my own deathbed I'll speak the words my own grandfather said Shake the dust, shake the dust When the world you used to trust Is in pieces all around you It's not what you thought it was Shake the dust, shake the dust When your empire starts to rust Only love outlasts the living ‘Til the dust and rust will claim the rest of us
