Farewell to the flesh
So deathwhite, cold, and lifeless
Before our grieving eyes displayed
In time preserved, before the vessel decays
Masses clad in black
As day gives way to darkness
Her sorrow masked by onyx veil
Beneath the shades of pale
Fragrances
Carried by the winds of old
Petrichor and putrescine, among uprooted soil
As the murder flies
Mournful stand in waiting
For the final rite
Attending the funeral tonight
Requiem of death
Beholders cite the epitaph
Engraved in stone these solemn words:
Here rests his head upon the lap of the Earth
In memoriam
The terminus of breath succumbed
Condolences and sympathies
There's nothing left to say
Fragrances
Carried by the winds of old
Petrichor and putrescine, among uprooted soil
Hearts in disarray
Creeping descent, six feet under
Melancholy strain
Attending the funeral
As the murder flies
Mournful stand in waiting
For the final rite
Attending the funeral tonight
Tonight
Earth to earth, ash to ash, dust to dust
Our dying days to come
Time and tide wait for no man
For in that sleep of death
Shuffled off this mortal coil
The casket falls
Once and for all
Earth to earth, ash to ash, dust to dust
Our dying days to come
Time and tide wait for no man
For in that sleep of death
Shuffled off this mortal coil
The casket falls
Once and for all
Fall
Hearts in disarray
Creeping descent, six feet under
Melancholy strain
Attending the funeral
As the murder flies
Mournful stand in waiting
For the final rite
Attending the funeral tonight
