River of Woe

Intruder, Deciever, death to the unbeliever
Rapists and killers, put to the knife the sinner
Father, bastard father, lead lambs to slaughter
Water, black water, look deep and recieve the second sight

Weakness of man, we search for things that we do not know
We'll meet again in the river of woe
Weakness of man, we want for things that we can't control
I'll see you again in the river of woe

When our loved ones die we blame ourselves,
thinking, what could I have done
Blinded by grief, we can't understand,
that maybe their time has come

Fear not, war
Fear not, lies
Fear not, evil
Fear not, life

Fear not, death
Fear not, pain
Fear not, shame
Fear not, strife

Oh, the tolling of the bell, the lowering of the coffin,
the lowering of the eyes
Hear, the whispered eulogy, a time of bereavement
A time of eternal sleep

Reaper, grim reaper, death to the unbeliever
Rapists and killers, put to the knife the sinner
Father, bastard father, lead lambs to slaughter
Water, black water, look deep, recieve
Look into the second sight

Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today,
to mourn for those we have lost, and for those who are lost
As we search for truth and find only lies
As the priest asks to read our last rites
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, shovelfull by shovelfull of dirt
In the end we will only destroy ourselves
Will there be anyone left to mourn mankind

Fear not my child, soon we'll meet again
Take your last breath, we'll meet at the river of woe
I'll always be your father, with undying love
Soon we'll be together, we'll meet at the river of woe

We'll meet at the river of woe
