Lyrics for Speak My Language

Daddy Daddy. It was just like you said Now that the living outnumber the dead. Where I come from it's a long thin thread Across an ocean. Down a river of red. Now that the living outnumber the dead. I'm one of many. Daddy Daddy. It was just like you said Now that the living outnumber the dead. Speak my language. Hello. Hello. Here come the quick. There go the dead. Here they come. Bright red. Speak my language.
