Can't Kill a Dead man Lyrics

Run like hell, yeah movin' fast
Don't fail me now know you gotta last
Move it on up to the quick step, go
And I get more speed when,
when I get real low
Yeah runnin'
Can't kill a dead man,
let your secrets fly
Yeah Runnin'
Can't kill a dead man, move it on up
As fire fills the sky
[CH]
Can't kill a dead man
Gotta, gotta get just a little more
Got the wake-up call head hit the floor
See there ain't nothin'
more that I can lose
So I get real slow when I have to choose
Yeah runnin'
Can't kill a dead man,
let your secrets fly
Yeah runnin'
Can't kill a dead man, move it on up
As fire fills the sky
[CH]
[BR]
I'm leavin', I'm stayin', I'm broken down
For grievin', conveyin' I am renowned
In all my dreams I know I can
In all my dreams I am a dead man
I'm leavin', I'm stayin', I'm broken down
I'm leavin'

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
