This Is A Eulogy Lyrics

My mother I see the light fade in your eyes

So full of wonder even through demise

Will we see tomorrow, or will the sun rise on our graves?

Forgave our sins freely

We're all to blame

Depleted completely

And without shame

Endured with a smile

Warning signs were there

The pain lives inside, inside of your core

How can I save you? Have things gone too far?

I give you my life, I'll fight for you endlessly

Tell me your tales of a night sky free

From the vigilant eye of aristocracy

Tempests tore through countrysides

And leveled steel from the city skies

Tell me your stories of cycles of seasons

The ebb and the flow of the blood in hearts beating

The laughter of children, the lovers' reprise

Now echoing silence, they sound our demise

They sing:

This is war

This is a eulogy

So here's your war

The end of you and me

This is the way

This struggle fueling me

When we all die

That's when we'll truly see

Madre mia, I'll fight for your life

Please forgive me, and all of mankind

I give you my soul, I give you my life

I'll never back down, never back down

No!

Tell me your tales of a world you once knew

With the mountains of white and the oceans of blue

Tell me all of yesterday

I'll hold your hand as you fade away

This is war

So here's your war

Babylon come down on you all
