A Funeral Song Lyrics

Album: Feuer

The flowers have fallen

The sky's fallen, too

Your friends, they are marching

As I march here for you

All dressed like black harvest

They'd die 'stead of you

Your mother is crying

I'm glad that we're through

The wreath is trussed

Am I sad enough?

I'm so glad that it's raining

So my tears can be proved

All eyes gaze at nothing

Don't embrace me, too

Now you rest in a deep gulf

No one's looking into

The cortege done

Am I sad enough?

Oh what a humble prayer!

No one's humbled by you

Your fathers have fallen

Now we're stripped to the truth

This birdsong is silence

No more I sing for you

The soil is tossed

Am I sad enough?

I'm so glad that I came to

Bury my pain with you

Am I sad enough?

So long...
