Requiem

Silently sleep

You're only dreaming

Endlessly deep

Day only fleeting

So long ago

Your story unfolds

Bravely awoke

Into a cruel world

Steadfast and bold

Carefully you learned

To stand on your own

In spite of the cold

So rest 'til you dream again

The silence your requiem

Don't be afraid, there'll be no pain

For you, while you sleep, my friend

I'll be waiting, a-low evermore

Force through the dark

Life drags you down, so

Courage and heart

Give you a foothold

The years pass you by

Oh, how they fly

Come to the end

Time waits for no man

Night falls again

The dream slips from your hands

Gone from our sight

But never our lives, oh

So rest 'til you dream again

The silence your requiem

Don't be afraid, there'll be no pain

For you, while you sleep, my friend

I'll be waiting, a-low, evermore

Dauntless repose

Night settles in and the darkness surrounds you

At the end of your days

Solace awaits to call you home

So rest 'til you dream again (Dream again)

The silence your requiem (Requiem)

Don't be afraid, there'll be no pain

For you, while you sleep, my friend

I'll be waiting, a-low, evermore

Silently sleep

You're only dreaming

Endlessly deep

Day only fleeting

Not long to go

'Til your story is told
