The Day We’ll Be Gone

Closed, the eyes of the dead Yet I can see you all black surrounding my old abode A cry breaking the silence Lament of a mourner washing pain away like rain Life, the day we'll be gone A step into the unknown Free from all fears Crave the peace of our earth Finally back to the place we belong Life, the greatest of all lies The time to blink our eyes and we're gone Before we die Crave our immortality As the memory resides in our name and fills the hearts Lone, my body rests May the earth lie lightly upon my defenseless spoils Void, epiphany of absence Fading all my senses into the eternal night Vacuum Time, the day we'll be gone The sleep of no return Where everything's clear Fame resounds in the words The true epitaph that will live forever Pain, afflicting the hearts Infecting the souls It's carved in the memories of our sons Face what we've become It shapes in the mirror a man we don't know Time, illusion of our mind The nemesis of the most foolish longing Eternity is... Fame, when back to dust again, is inert And all that remains, it can be love or... Pain we inflicted on other men Infernal torment lasts for the ones we leave behind Face, oh who we really are Laid bare before the highest judge...the memory Shine! Before returning to dust Accept the finite nature of flesh and carpe diem Live each day as if it's your last Unburdened of paralyzing dreads, move past As the master taught us Cold, the hand of fate Cruel, falls down relentless the curtain on passing flesh Death, the close of existence The mother of all fears and despair of mankind Is nothing but...life
