A Debt Owed to the Grave |
A life extinguished in its prime |
Summoned by the bell’s strident chime |
A bemoaning family laments |
An Obolus the payment for a life that has been spent |
Silent and stiff |
In rigor mortis' grip |
The die is cast |
How quickly one’s time can elapse |
The ferryman will take you on your way |
The coin’s been passed |
Empty is your hourglass |
In a lightless chamber, the cold slab awaits |
Stained sheets, the darkest shade of crimson |
Bloated by the onset of decomposition |
No one will mourn over his death |
An Obol forced inside your mouth before your final breath |
Silent and stiff |
No tears shed for a life now forfeit |
A debt owed to the grave |
A debt we all must pay |
