Lyrics Eternal - Paradise Lost

Eternal

Why can t we hear
The time must come for us to leave here
Emotion has withered away
Our burnt out love has decayed
Obsessed to leave the earth
Tragedy has overrun since birth
Now our righteous fathers weep
As we greet eternal sleep
Are we born to pass away
Cry at all that remains
Chosen words fail to sustain
The wisdom of powers heard
In dismal thoughts seemingly absurd
Now as hope and glory dies
We ll scream at our demise
Are we lost forever more
Now our righteous fathers weep
We ll greet eternal sleep
Are we born to pass away
