Lyrics
And these august nights cold as december, a good man has passed
night descends
although you re gone
and these august nights cold as december
That mourning light i ll always remember, he has reached the last of frontiers Flags, down to half-mast
Upon the one who lies beneath, this is the end
A good man has passed, your journey s over
although you re gone
Asleep in peace now rest, now lay your wreaths Flags, you will be missed
lower the flags
Now lay your wreaths, this is the end
for again the world has taken a turn for the worse
and these august nights cold as december
Down to half-mast, he has reached the last of frontiers, you will be missed
Down to half-mast, down to half-mast Lower, for again the world has taken a turn for the worse
Lower the flags, in memories you shall live on Flags, night descends
For again the world has taken a turn for the worse, your journey s over
your journey s over
Six feet of earth upon his head, and these august nights cold as december
A good man has passed, down to half-mast
You will be missed, the weight of the world is off your chest
He has reached the last of frontiers, as silently we wander through the mist
His remains upon the hearse ahead, this is the end, down to half-mast
Lower the flags, upon the one who lies beneath Flags, down to half-mast
asleep in peace now rest
Down to half-mast, your journey s over, his remains upon the hearse ahead
Asleep in peace now rest, six feet of earth upon his head
Down to half-mast, six feet of earth upon his head
Upon the one who lies beneath, six feet of earth upon his head
For again the world has taken a turn for the worse, lower the flags Sentenced, his remains upon the hearse ahead
asleep in peace now rest
Below into the abyss, a good man has passed, for again the world has taken a turn for the worse
As silently we wander through the mist, lower the flags, below into the abyss
A good man has passed, lower the flags
lower the flags
Lower the flags, your journey s over, now lay your wreaths
down to half-mast
asleep in peace now rest
Lower the flags, in memories you shall live on Flags, upon the one who lies beneath
Night descends, he has reached the last of frontiers Flags, below into the abyss
down to half-mast
that mourning light i ll always remember
Your journey s over, in memories you shall live on
For again the world has taken a turn for the worse, and these august nights cold as december
A good man has passed, lower the flags
below into the abyss
Lower the flags, his remains upon the hearse ahead
He has reached the last of frontiers, he has reached the last of frontiers, lower the flags
That mourning light i ll always remember, lower the flags, for again the world has taken a turn for the worse
As silently we wander through the mist, he has reached the last of frontiers
the weight of the world is off your chest
Your journey s over, now lay your wreaths, and these august nights cold as december
