"Mourners" lyrics

"Mourners"

Meagre trees in the shrouds
As olde as the stones...
Mourners of abandoned love
For never their woes shall grow silent

O how many times may the moon has shone
Reflected in these black lakes?
Should it be that we can hear
The woes of those who ceased their lives?

O so old they are...
They bare the never-ending grief...
Age-old miserability
Ancient bitter beauty

Lost is the hope of those
Who walk the moors with pain in heart
And all joy it sinks
Buried deep, forever presumed dead

O so old they are...
They bare the never-ending grief...
Age-old miserability
A bitter beauty thrilling me
