pinebox to sleep in


I've laid in this shallow grave
Long have I been dead
The black roses cover the casket
The pinebox is now my bed

The world has entered the shadows
My soul has fled this place
The demons and angels challenge
I long for eternity's taste

The end has come to the future
There is no beginning again
I have nothing to give or offer
Play the mournful violin

Should we pass before our time
We should embrace our fate
Our hearts uncorrupted inside
And though sinful feel no shame
