Lyrics


1. WITHER

Rest your weary eyes, my love
Don't you linger in the wake
The suffering will be over soon
Oh, let death come take us away

Now dead leaves outside are falling
As the winds come sweeping in
Winter's eve comes crawling
To lay our fading hearts to rest

In the dust of the dying light
I saw your face for the last time
And in the cold of this empty room
I see your dying hands in mine

Nightfall blackens my withering vision
I saw your eyes turn to grey

In the dust of the dying light
I saw your face for the last time
And in the cold of this empty room
I see your dying hands in mine

Dead leaves outside are falling...
Winter's eve comes crawling...


2. THE LAST FUNERAL

Too tired to find myself here again
Weeping in the autumn rain
By your graveside

Why do i bury you like treasured gold
When all this seems so hard to behold
My heart breaks so deeply

And as the moon will rise
I'll curse the heavenly skies
That took you away from me
Tell me how can this be

Too late to say my last goodbyes
In a thousand years you'll still hear me cry
I can't bare this anymore..

My last funeral
And if the sky should fall
I'll never lose anyone again
This is the last time i'll cry
If every soul should fade
I'll never feel anything again
