Crucify The Dead (feat. Ozzy Osbourne) Lyrics

The fire started long ago
The flames burned out still embers glow
So charred and black
There's nothing left to burn, to burn

We had the same dream
Lived life to extreme
A loaded gun jammed by a rose

The thorns are knots around your head
Your ego cursed you till you bled
You cannot crucify the dead
To me you're dead

The future is unset in stone
Decisions past leave you alone
Betrayed us all with your own selfish greed, your greed

New soldiers now say
That your beggars collect
Re-crucified and paid by you

The thorns are knots around your head
Your ego cursed you till you bled
You cannot crucify the dead
To me you're dead

We were like brothers with the world in our hands
You always have too much to say
Someday you look back and you wonder why
You let it all slip away

Crucify the dead
Crucify the dead

The thorns are knots around your head
Your ego cursed you till you bled
You cannot crucify the dead
To me you're dead

I think this song could be about someone he was close to but grewfarther away from them "We were like brothers with the world in our hands You always have too much to say Someday you look back and you wonder why You let it all slip away" Pesonality change? "The thorns are knots around your head Your ego cursed you till you bled You cannot crucify the dead To me you're dead"

Fire is a reference to completely burning the bridge between the two?
