Lyrics Requiem for Mankind - Memoriam

Requiem for Mankind

The final act
Shall now begin
Forgive us from
Our mortal sins
Hear the sermon
A last lament
Led from temptation
Now to repent
Lowered down
Into the grave
The earth now calls
Honouring the brave
Requiem for mankind
Now ring out
The death knell
Solemn sound
Of the funeral bell
Consigned into
Eternity
The last rites
Closing eulogy
Lowered down
Into the grave
The earth now calls
Honouring the brave
Preordained, what shall be shall be
The body lost, the spirit set free
Forevermore, eternal sleep
The end of life, resting in peace
Requiem for mankind
Sanctuary denied
Requiem for mankind
Revered in glory
Legend lives on
Within our soul
Now is one
Place the stone
On the burial mound
Tranquility
Now is found
Lowered down
Into the grave
The earth now calls
Honouring the brave
