GRUNDY

[Intro — Distant Choir, Wind, Low Heartbeat] Born on a Monday... Died on a Sunday... But the grave... Would not keep me. [Verse 1] Mud on my hands. Cold in my bones. I woke beneath the earth With no memory of home. Trees whispered my name. The river knew my face. Something pulled me from the darkness... Something gave me a second place. I walked through the swamp. I wandered through the night. Every step I took Made the dead feel alive. They called me monster. They called me beast. But I remember one thing... I never found peace. [Pre-Chorus] Monday... Tuesday... Wednesday... The days keep passing. But I don't. [Chorus] GRUNDY! BORN FROM THE GRAVE! GRUNDY! NO SOUL LEFT TO SAVE! I DIED ON SUNDAY! I ROSE AGAIN! I AM THE THING THAT DEATH COULDN'T END! GRUNDY! HEAR THE DEAD CALL MY NAME! GRUNDY! I AM RAGE! I AM PAIN! [Verse 2] They tried to bury me. They tried to burn my bones. They tried to send me back To the darkness I called home. But every time I fall... I rise. Every time I die... I return. Gotham fears the monster Walking through the fog. But somewhere inside this body There is still a man. Or what's left of one. [Pre-Chorus] Thursday... Friday... Saturday... The week is ending. But I am still here. [Chorus] GRUNDY! BORN FROM THE GRAVE! GRUNDY! NO SOUL LEFT TO SAVE! I DIED ON SUNDAY! I ROSE AGAIN! I AM THE THING THAT DEATH COULDN'T END! GRUNDY! HEAR THE DEAD CALL MY NAME! GRUNDY! I AM RAGE! I AM PAIN! [Bridge — Quiet, Haunted Piano] Solomon Grundy... Born on a Monday. Christened on Tuesday. Married on Wednesday. Took ill on Thursday. Worse on Friday. Died on Saturday. Buried on Sunday. That was the end... Or so they thought. [Silence] But something... Went wrong. [Music Explodes] [Breakdown — Massive Drums] RISE! FROM! THE! GRAVE! BREAK THE CHAINS! SHAKE THE EARTH! NO DEATH! NO REST! NO GOD! NO END! GRUNDY! GRUNDY! GRUNDY! [Final Chorus — Massive Choir] GRUNDY! BORN FROM THE GRAVE! GRUNDY! NO SOUL LEFT TO SAVE! I DIED ON SUNDAY! BUT I ROSE AGAIN! YOU CAN BURY ME FOREVER... I'LL STILL RETURN! GRUNDY! HEAR THE DEAD CALL MY NAME! GRUNDY! I AM THE GRAVE! I AM THE PAIN! I AM... GRUNDY! [Outro — Wind and Distant Choir] Born on a Monday... Died on a Sunday... And somewhere beneath Gotham... Grundy... Still waits.
