"Cathedral Walls" lyrics

"Cathedral Walls"

Where do we go from here?
When these words have been unspoken
We carry this burden through the gentle summer rain
The convoy is still, still and weeping
Yet I don't feel anything, but these walls around

"And the candles on the cathedral walls
Chase the weak light under the saints eyes
Over you, and your shattered words for the ones you lost
In your mourning you're alone, so alone"

This silence speaks a million words
Words of comfort so shallow
How I wish even for one tear
But for my heart it is too late
Where do I go when the sorrow turns to hate
Where do I go from here?

The guardian angels quiet and near
Slowly turning away, for hell is surely here
Every step towards the hole in the ground I rot
Carrying your white coffin, my heart wide shut

I will follow you, earth to earth
I will follow you, ashes to ashes
I will follow you, dust to dust
I will follow you

How I wish even for one tear
But for my heart it is too late
When sorrow turns to hate

"And the candles on the cathedral walls
Chase the weak light under the Saints eyes
Over you, and your shattered words for the ones you lost
In your mourning you're alone, so alone"
