Lyrics
The cold slab awaits, in rigor mortis grip
A life extinguished in its prime, in a lightless chamber
In rigor mortis grip, how quickly one s time can elapse
summoned by the bell s strident chime
In rigor mortis grip, no tears shed for a life now forfeit
An obolus the payment for a life that has been spent, a bemoaning family laments Grave, no tears shed for a life now forfeit
a debt owed to the grave
The coin s been passed, summoned by the bell s strident chime
The darkest shade of crimson, silent and stiff, the die is cast
bloated by the onset of decomposition
A debt owed to the grave, no one will mourn over his death, no tears shed for a life now forfeit
a life extinguished in its prime
No one will mourn over his death, a debt we all must pay, silent and stiff
The ferryman will take you on your way, the darkest shade of crimson
The cold slab awaits, the die is cast
Silent and stiff, silent and stiff, empty is your hourglass
The coin s been passed, stained sheets, a debt we all must pay
A debt owed to the grave, bloated by the onset of decomposition, the die is cast
Summoned by the bell s strident chime, the coin s been passed Owed, silent and stiff
Silent and stiff, stained sheets, the die is cast
no one will mourn over his death
the cold slab awaits
Silent and stiff, silent and stiff
a debt we all must pay
empty is your hourglass
a debt we all must pay
Bloated by the onset of decomposition, silent and stiff
A life extinguished in its prime, the die is cast
The die is cast, the die is cast
A life extinguished in its prime, in rigor mortis grip Owed, no tears shed for a life now forfeit
no tears shed for a life now forfeit
Stained sheets, silent and stiff
Bloated by the onset of decomposition, no one will mourn over his death, no tears shed for a life now forfeit
No one will mourn over his death, a debt we all must pay
Summoned by the bell s strident chime, the coin s been passed, the coin s been passed
Silent and stiff, stained sheets, in a lightless chamber
Bloated by the onset of decomposition, in a lightless chamber Grave, silent and stiff
A life extinguished in its prime, in a lightless chamber, the ferryman will take you on your way
Silent and stiff, bloated by the onset of decomposition
