Requiem Lyrics

Into the dark we cleanse our bones

Renewed by our intents unknown

I pour it out like summer rain

And soar about with hurricanes

You've come too late; my mind is already made.

You've come too late; my time is too short to waste

- you won't take it.

The fall of words has left us dry

With all the earth and breath denied

I swam too long and lost the shore

But damned if I'll ever roam - back to yours

You've come too late; my mind is already made.

You've come too late; my time is too short to waste

- you won't take it.

The tiger doesn't roar a lullably

And the eagle doesn't soar to patronize

Yet the sun will surely fall on the evening

Just as all the willow trees will die weeping

You've come too late; my mind is already made.

You've come too late; my time is too short to waste

You've come too late; my mind is already made.

Now you've gone too far; retrace the steps back to start:

You won't make it.
