Solemn Slumber
Lay in slumber of your solemn sleep
Leaving behind those who weep
Cry into the deaf air
Only silence will answer
Your life will remain in plight
Lay in slumber of that solemn night
Tattered memories cry down weary cheeks
Flowing into the forgotten sea
Rapids that rage the most remain unseen
Lay in slumber under that solemn stream
The memory that burns the most
Is that you chose the life of a ghost
Lay in slumber under the wings of your new host
