CONSUMMATUM EST LYRICS
"Funeral Procession" (2005)
1. Funeral procession
2. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
3. Winter sacrament
1. Funeral procession
The crowd slowly passed
moans everywhere
Confused whispers
formed a prey
Heavy grey clouds
came with the mourn
Tears from the sky
kissed the coffin
Like a choir of shadows
rise our prey of death
In these moments we don’t know
who is the dead, who is the living…
In our heart go by a black veil
and in these moments we are the dead…
In these moments
is also our funeral…
This is the funeral procession
and we are all dead…
This is the funeral procession
and we have never lived…
This is our funeral procession
2. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Winter comes slowly
and like a sweet poison
Inebriates the senses
and freezes the heart
It’s like a nourishment
for flowers made of dust
Grown in the hope
Whitered in the oblivion
Forgotten fields
where flowers are stillborn
Immutable skies
where stars don’t shine
Here is my home
an abandoned place
where i can rest
for an eternity and more...
Please let me drown in this womb
where life turns to ash
Please let that the dust entomb me
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust…
3. Winter sacrament
Listen to this sound, so soft, like a caress…
this sweet melody is like a kiss in my forehead…
I think that this night will be long, neverending…
but I have no fear, we are protected here…
Sweetly, slowly, soft snow is falling
covers our grave, brush the tombstone…
But here we are protected,
under some metres of dump soil…
Our flesh will be gnaw by the worms
Embraced for the eternity we will stay
lulled by the silence of the grave
lulled by… our sobs…
Sleep, sleep my dear lover, the night is still long…
Sleep, sleep my dear lover, the night is so long and cold…
This night is neverending and keep us safe
This night is neverending and keep us safe…
