They Die Lyrics

by Anathema

All tears restrained for years
Their grief is confined
Which destroys my mind

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e80681-anathema~they_die_lyrics.html ]
An ode to their plight is this dirge

Some yearn for lugubrious silence
(It is the) serenity in the image of coffins

Shall life renew these bodies of a truth?
All death will he annul, all tears assuage?
Fill the void veins of life, again with youth
And wash with an immortal water, age

They die.
