the burial grounds


The burial grounds
The row and row of it
Of the tombstones display
Of the host bodies gone

Buried underground
For eternity of the darkness
Leaving bones for history
For the next wave visiting

Hell and paradise
The journey of our belief
The old scriptures painted it
In reality it is living and dead

The burial grounds
The testimony of hell
Into the darkness we fall
Once our souls gone

The paradise we dream
The heaven we seek to travel
We never know in our times
We can only draw on it
