A Slow March to the Burial |
Black painted hearse idles slowly |
Procession follows at a morbid pace |
The pallbearers steady in their march |
Befitting this most sacred ceremony |
Ornate brass handles clasped |
By solemn faced black clad men |
Shining black casket lid |
Inlaid in crimson silk |
In there lies your father, son… |
A father to a son and a son to a father |
Now claimed by the coldest hand of death |
Faintest scent of fresh cut white rose petal |
Choked by the musty scent of fresh turned earth |
Funereal they march… Funereal they march… |
Funereal they march… Funereal they march |
