Finale: Epitaph
The first time I died, I walked away
I followed the file of limping days
I stood up tall, with my head held up
But I dared not look upon the new moon's cup
I dared not look on the sweet, young rain
For between my ribs was a gleaming pain
No, I dared not look on the sweet, young rain
For between my ribs was a gleaming pain
The next time I died, they laid me deep
They spoke worn words to hallow my sleep
They tossed me petals, they wreathed me the fern
They weighted me down with a marble urn
And I lie here warm, I lie here dry
And watch the worms slip by, slip by
I lie here warm, I lie here dry
And watch the worms slip by, slip by
Lie warm, lie dry
Lie warm, lie dry
I followed the file of limping days
I stood up tall, with my head held up
But I dared not look upon the new moon's cup
I dared not look on the sweet, young rain
For between my ribs was a gleaming pain
No, I dared not look on the sweet, young rain
For between my ribs was a gleaming pain
The next time I died, they laid me deep
They spoke worn words to hallow my sleep
They tossed me petals, they wreathed me the fern
They weighted me down with a marble urn
And I lie here warm, I lie here dry
And watch the worms slip by, slip by
I lie here warm, I lie here dry
And watch the worms slip by, slip by
Lie warm, lie dry
Lie warm, lie dry
