Your Dead

57 3 0
                                    

Bring out your dead
I'll bury them all
Leave them with me

Dress them in silk
Black as the night
Where no one can see
Paint them with dirt
Shallow their graves
Silent their names
Swallowed by Earth
Written in dust
Killing their fame

How did they die?
Oh, the despair
So many lost
Original sin
Gone in thin air
That is the cost
No one recalls
All that is left
Nameless farewell
Minding the fall
Cover the theft
Welcome to Hell
