...And I Lust

[Intro] Stately columns standing in solemn rows Such empty honours are suitable for those Whose death erases all renown and fame And vanquishes their glory with their name [verse 1] Wandering aimlessly through dead filled fields Rewards are just Who knows what absence yields? [Chorus] By the golden beauty of dusk And the sun low in our sky By the haunting shadows of trees And graves mesmerized am I [Verse 2] Searching deep inside trying to reach my dreams I see a face stare back at me Oh so serene [Chorus] [Verse 3] Those whispering shades Sad silent glades [Bridge] But not for those whose superior worth After death extols them to the earth I would even venture to assume That one need not build for them a tomb By human art, since glory heaven sent Serves them as a living monument [Outro] Pain is a far away land Misery A lifetime's journey And I lust for death (judgement)
