2. THE FUNERAL (ETERNAL REST)

As death
Takes you away
There's no use to pray
Heaven or hell, you choose your way

Memories of a sudden past
Why did my life have to end so fast?
Down in a wooden coffin
Your soul set free or forever locked in
You live, you die, is it all?

The funeral

Your soul floating free
See your rotting body below
Soon you shall hold the answer
To where we shall go

Memories of a sudden past
Memories of a lying church
Is the one who'll last
Down in a wooden coffin
Your soul set free or forever locked in
You live, you die, is it all?

The funeral

As you stand by the gate
Into the realm
That holds your fate
What shall await?

Memories of a sudden past
Why did my life have to end so fast?
Down in a wooden coffin
Your soul set free or forever locked in
You live, you die, is it all?

The funeral


3. BEYOND THE GRAVE

I have died
A gruesome sight
Out has blown
My last light
Trapped in death
I cannot flee
What shall come
What shall be

Life has ceased
Death came so fast
Shall I forever wonder
Why I didn't last
Watch the candle of life
Slowly fade
What goes on
Beyond the grave

I remember
What the preacher told
An afterlife insurance
Is what he sold
I hear no angels
No god's paradise
I know you lied
And I was wise
