ANATHEMA LYRICS
"They Die" (1992 Single)
1. They Die
2. Crestfallen
1. They Die
All tears restrained for yearsTheir grief is confinedWhich destroys my mindAn ode to their plight is this dirgeSome yearn for lugubrious silence(It is the) serenity in the image of coffinsShall life renew these bodies of a truth?All death will he annul, all tears assuage?Fill the void veins of life, again with youthAnd wash with an immortal water, ageThey die.
2. Crestfallen
I cry a tear of hope but it is lost in helplessnessThe darkness eats away at the very embers of my soulFor the deepest love I had has dissolved before my eyesMy sorrow is bleak, I beg for deliveranceLord, in your mercy, hear my prayerAll emotion is consumed by an inner silenceAll grief is unassuaged by disconsulate tearsI want for nothing, I live for nothingI am waiting to die but I am afraid of dyingLord, in your mercy, hear my prayerCrestfallen emotionWallowing in guiltand drowning for evermoreFalling deeper into fearMy inner self is nowa sleeper of stoneHelp me.
