Cryptical Envelopment (Reprise) - Grateful Dead

The other day they waited

The sky was dark and faded

Solemnly they stated

He has to die

You know he has to die

And all the children learning

From books that they were burning

Every leaf was turning

To watch him die

You know he had to die

The summer sun looked down on him

His mother could but frown on him

And all the others sound on him

But it doesn’t seem to matter

And when the day had ended

With rainbow colors blended

His mind remained unbended

He had to die, you know he had to die

You know he had to die
