This Is A Eulogy

My mother I see the light fade in your eyes
So full of wonder even through demise
Will we see tomorrow, or will the sun rise on our graves?

Forgave our sins freely
We're all to blame
Depleted completely
And without shame
Endured with a smile
Warning signs were there

The pain lives inside, inside of your core
How can I save you? Have things gone too far?
I give you my life, I'll fight for you endlessly

Tell me your tales of a night sky free
From the vigilant eye of aristocracy
Tempests tore through countrysides
And leveled steel from the city skies
Tell me your stories of cycles of seasons
The ebb and the flow of the blood in hearts beating
The laughter of children, the lovers' reprise
Now echoing silence, they sound our demise
They sing:

This is war
This is a eulogy
So here's your war
The end of you and me
This is the way
This struggle fueling me
When we all die
That's when we'll truly see

Madre mia, I'll fight for your life
Please forgive me, and all of mankind
I give you my soul, I give you my life
I'll never back down, never back down
No!

Tell me your tales of a world you once knew
With the mountains of white and the oceans of blue
Tell me all of yesterday
I'll hold your hand as you fade away

This is war
So here's your war
Babylon come down on you all
