It seems as clear as yesterday We saw it in a dream But dream became insanity An awful gaping scream So sad to see such emptiness So sad to see such tears And heaped up leaves of bitterness Turned mouldy down the years
Nothing but the truth. Common words in use Hard to find excuse Harder than the truth
Like icarus we flew too high We flew too near the sun They caught us in that awful glare Our hapless throats were strung But just before the final stroke They took us victims of the rope And cast us far beyond the deep To lie in never ending sleep
It seems as clear as yesterday They cast us in the deep We lie in darkest night for good Never ending sleep A never ending bitter gloom Whose darkness seldom clears A God forsaken emptiness Which fills our hearts with tears
