Haken - In Memoriam lyrics

Take a step put one foot in the grave Catch a breath submerged in holy water Watch a moving scene of former days Shed a tear as memory starts to falter Familiar faces try to hide the pain Medicate to alleviate the pressure Make amends with the ones I used to hate Feel the agony give way to pleasure [Chorus] Tearing down the walls of eternity All in my loving memory Final scene humility I succumb to universal law Another system's energy disperses Mother nature red in tooth and claw It's the game that everybody loses Show your cards and accept What you've been dealt Guardian or harbinger of sorrow? Pour a drink, raise a gla** And toast to health Is the truth too hard for us to swallow? [Chorus] Tearing down the walls of eternity All in my loving memory Master of creation Lead us from temptation Father of invention Please guild my ascension So much left unspoken Life leaving heartbroken A sense of acceptance One final repentance Read these words upon my stone In piam memoriam [Chorus] Tearing down the walls of eternity All in my loving memory
