Why can't we hear
The time must come for us to leave
Here emotion has withered away

Our burnt out love has decayed
Obsessed to leave the Earth
Tragedy has overrun since birth


Now our righteous fathers weep
As the great eternal sleep

Are me born to pass away

Cry at all that remains

Chosen words fail to substance
The wisdom of powers heard
In dismal thoughts seemingly absurd


Now as hope and glory dies
We'll scream at our demise

Are we lost forever more
