Crematorium

Last in line
Last to die
See all the faces melt in flame
Hear all the voices rise in pain

Drifting away
Away from misery
Away from you and me

One step to the sun
Crematorium

Acrid smoke, it fills our lungs
Chokes the soul, memories undone
Emptiness inside, it withered away
Burning pillars scorching day
In the ranks they turn
They won't watch us burn
Remorse, the shame they carry in
Ashes only remnants of their sin

Drifting away
Away from misery
Away from you and me

We cried for the gun
Crematorium

Drifting away
We're drifting away

Away from misery
Away from you and me

Where to go after the flame
To the sky, into the rain
Filling the wounded clouds bleeding our death
We're empty souls starved of breath
The dark had light
One moment was bright
The end, it came in shades of red
We're taken in, dancing as the dead

The fire's begun
Crematorium
