Analysis of A dead man
A dead man
hates all
But still he longs to love
And to be loved
A dead man
can't kiss
Cause from his mouth crawls
A bug
A dead man
Can't hug for he withers like dust
A dead man
Will forever pick from behind the trees
And watch the love birds lust
For love follows him
But away he must.
