lyrics

Name them or bury them,
them for whom the future is saved.
Optimism lost, infinite burials gained.
Don't know whether to name them or bury them.

Name them or bury them, immortalize or erase them.
Love them or tear them apart, limb by limb or heart by heart:
none quite captures the glory sought.

"Remove thyself from simple talk."
"What about us? What of our choice?"
Unwanted blessings too simply discarded
while the passionate laborers carry the weight
of a thousand boxed nurseries
on fragile and battered shoulders.

As things were before, though
with emptiness as a fresh companion,
weakly replaced for the image of you.
