DEATHKNELL

Faithful are the wounds
When they’re from a friend
Harbinger of the end
Hour of redemption
Sitting here tonight
In our earthly paradise
Thinking about all those
Who have come in and out of our life
Our beautiful house built of blood
Sweat and rock
If only these walls could talk
Hold my hand
Stretched to infinity
And filled with memories
Walk with me
Down this dark hallway together
In all that we have weathered.

I can hear the bell ring
Somewhere in the distance
And deep within myself
I know that this too shall pass

I can hear the rain outside
The streets wet with regret
How easy it is to remember
How hard it is to forget
Old photographs
Are burned into ash
Let us toast
The ghosts of our past
Come for me
And comfort me
In this moment of memories
In remembrance
These lovely bones of metaphors
Are the exquisite corpse of friendship

I can hear the bell ring
Somewhere in the distance
And deep within myself
I know that this too shall pass

Let us remember this feeling
As we sit in front of our home
For this house that we built
We built it alone
10 years strong
With heart
Soul and pride
They tried to kill us
But we have survived

I can hear the bell ring
Somewhere in the distance
And deep within myself
I know that this too shall pass
I can hear the bell ring
Somewhere in the distance
And deep within myself
I know that this too shall pass

In the end
We will continue to do what we do
Without them
But never, me without you
