Diphtheria - Ending Ceremony lyrics

rate me

Here come the dead <br />

All bleeding red <br />

This one's been choked <br />

The other shot in the head <br />

<br />

Here come the flies <br />

Children with no eyes <br />

They hold each other's hands and dance <br />

A jig of world demise <br />

<br />

Chorus: <br />

Hand in hand <br />

They march on down the altar <br />

Heart in hand <br />

They stand before the father <br />

In the Ceremony of the End <br />

<br />

Here come the numb <br />

The weakened and the dumb <br />

They turn a curtained eye on <br />

What we have become <br />

<br />

Here come the blind <br />

The sick and out of mind <br />

The only happy people <br />

In all of human kind <br />

<br />

Rep. Chorus <br />

<br />

All have gathered here <br />

The trumpets of Damnation blow <br />

The actors take their place <br />

It's time to get on with the show <br />

<br />

The sun he bows and goes <br />

Night descends upon the hall <br />

They're standing in the isles <br />

Waiting for the curtain call <br />

<br />

Take your place next to me <br />

Below this last of all the skies <br />

We'll hold each other close <br />

And laugh like hell as the world dies <br />

<br />

Later come the wise <br />

Who'd brought on their demise <br />

By severing the bars of <br />

the birdcage of their lies <br />

<br />

And then come you and I <br />

Who gave meaning to the lie <br />

By seeking refuge from the storm <br />

In a feeling doomed to die <br />

<br />

Rep. Chorus
