For Whom Do We Mourn Lyrics


To the ends of the earth I have traveled

So many sorrows and so many curses

And once again as the daylight has faded

My demons start with their hypnotic verses

Dreams die as the last breath approaches

The air is thick with a stench of denial

Shattered hopes seep into subconscious

Into the hole of your downward spiral

Spiral

I am no longer captive

No need to be reborn

And so I ask myself again

For whom do we mourn

Tragic loss of a life since forgotten

Dust to dust spoken words of bereavement

Trapped in time sewing seeds divine

Vivify free the soul from enslavement

Bury the heart in a tomb for the nameless

Scattered ashes on wings of deception

Catatonic through thoughts and emotions

Left to die from this foul insurrection

I am no longer captive

No need to be reborn

And so I ask myself again

For Whom Do We Mourn

I am no longer captive

No need to be reborn

And so I ask myself again

For Whom Do We Mourn

Do We Mourn

For Whom Do We Mourn
