Dirge

Dearly beloved, I'm picking up the pieces that you broke This dirge is for everything that will never be Not much left to tell in the eulogy of lifetimes gone by Save your sorrow for the living I'll be at peace in the cold silence Take a second for reflection Then put it out of your head No need to prolong this departure of better days It's fading away Mourn not the memories of things we can't recapture I'm getting colder and I feel so much more different than when this first began Looking in retrospect at time wasted Hollow survivors We assembled here today Maybe tomorrow we'll gather again But for now, it's all the same I'd bid you a solemn goodbye But I don't think you even noticed my absence How can I beat this dead messiah of a complex An intuitive idea Take a second for reflection Then put it out of your head No need to prolong this departure of better days It's fading away Mourn not the memories of things we can't recapture I'm getting colder and I feel so much more different than when this first began Looking in retrospect at time wasted Take a second for reflection Then put it out of your head No need to prolong this departure of better days It's fading away Mourn not the memories of things we can't recapture I'm getting colder and I feel so much more different than when this first began Looking in retrospect at time wasted
