We mourn the loss of this vessel Yet we must not weep Hurry now Prepare yourself There's word to be done It was not your turn to depart Taken too quickly Our time is short for what they will fade if we were to fail We must not hesitate The soul leaves in a flash Summon their spirit with blood, bone and ash Cut thy palm And grab the stone AS we dance around the grave From the earth you shall return To walk with us once again Hear our voices! It's time to rise Now you rise! Hear our voices! The drum beats louder We chant along to give you new life Without caution or a second thought I must have you back this night As you return You seem so cold Oh what have I done? Selfishly I must admit that without you I can't go on I scream aloud And drop the stone For there's no soul left to save To the earth you must return I'll follow you into the grave
