Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes - Rotten Blossom Lyrics

What happens to us when we die
Do we rot in the ground while our loved ones cry
Do we dissipate, into a ray of light
Explode into stardust up in the sky
Are we food for the worms or dust for the earth
Are we more complicated than we are at birth
What happens to our memories
Are they kept by our friends or our enemies

[Chorus]
When we die
Are we the lambs or are we the wolves
When we die
Are we the kings or are we fools
When we die are we gone forever
Do we burn in hell or do we get to heaven
What happens to us when we die?

[Verse 2]
What happens to us when we die?
Do we leave in a breath or a battle cry?
When we're gone do we leave our family behind?
Do they fall apart or do they fly?
Do we live on in their memories?
In the good times only like a reverie
Do they think of us as heavily?
Do we live on in their mindless sleep?


[Chorus]
When we die
Are we the lambs or are we the wolves
When we die
Are we the kings or are we fools
When we die are we gone forever
Do we burn in hell or do we get to heaven
What happens to us when we die?

[Breakdown]
When we die is it really then end
Is it more than we can comprehend
Are we absolved, are we forgiven
Do we just die, or are we risen

When we die is it really the end
Do we lay down, do we transcend
Are we lost, are we forgotten
Do we blossom, or are we just rotten

When we die is it really then end
Is it more than we can comprehend
Are we absolved, are we forgiven
Do we just die, or are we risen

[Chorus]
When we die
Are we the lambs or are we the wolves
When we die
Are we the kings or are we fools
When we die are we gone forever
Do we burn in hell or do we get to heaven
What happens to us when we die?
