The Procession (Death March to Eternity)
The procession in progress
Withered hands grip the casket
The bearers bear nothing but laughter
Carried onward by a familiar skeletal embrace
This worn out old carcass
Wilted from decomposition
This worldly tomb
This worldly tomb
The impending bleakness we've tried to ignore
With our heads tilted to the ground
We snuff out condolences
This worldly tomb
This worldly tomb
The impending bleakness we've been wired to ignore
The inexorable
The absolute
The perishing eternity
Abysmal torment
We are the manifestation of our own demise
We've fitted the noose in the hope that there is no reprieve
The torch has extinguished
The asphyxiation of flame
We've poured blood from the chalice
And abandoned our alters to crumble
We've sealed ourselves in this casket
Together, in suffering
We'll expel all our righteousness
Expel all life to the darkness
Withered hands grip the casket
The bearers bear nothing but laughter
Carried onward by a familiar skeletal embrace
This worn out old carcass
Wilted from decomposition
This worldly tomb
This worldly tomb
The impending bleakness we've tried to ignore
With our heads tilted to the ground
We snuff out condolences
This worldly tomb
This worldly tomb
The impending bleakness we've been wired to ignore
The inexorable
The absolute
The perishing eternity
Abysmal torment
We are the manifestation of our own demise
We've fitted the noose in the hope that there is no reprieve
The torch has extinguished
The asphyxiation of flame
We've poured blood from the chalice
And abandoned our alters to crumble
We've sealed ourselves in this casket
Together, in suffering
We'll expel all our righteousness
Expel all life to the darkness
