Though it swallows our friends, the grave never speaks And our voices can’t reach them now; they’re buried too far down It’s difficult to imagine how dark it is for you, I guess this was something you had to go through What’s it like, being free? Is it like a dream? You never liked the noise, the ruckus and all the ploys I guess you got what you always wanted, though it all seems haunted This world seems a little darker to me too, of my cold grave it’s a little preview Your memory will die now that you’re gone, inevitable like the going of dawn This journey without you, I wonder if it even matters whether I do The birds sing as before, I see when I’m gone there’ll be no uproar With you in silence, to the earth I return and bring some balance As it was so it will be, a life is gone and gives another its key This life is pointless as can be, but it defines our eternity Soon silence comes and we leave this place, so toil for the next and for this grace
