The Mourning Eulogy Songtext
von Junius

Standing around a grave, chanting lines from a page
It′s the mourning denial, an age old recital
The fear of uncertain fate
An ember falls from the sky, foreshadowing our demise
It's happened before, the fables ignored
A subject most vital and why he has sacrificed
Why is a death required to turn a flame into fire?
A radiating force, a memory adorned
At last he was admired
We lower him in the ground, pour dirt on his furrowed brow The procession recedes, some fall to their knees
Blaming the gods for a loss that they have found
We will find
Sacrifice
We will rise
Blinding light
You know I tried so hard to find the fire in all of us
And now I rise to the heavens above
Ascension absolves none of us
