Lamento

Listen to the story of a man who died in oblivion
alone in life with no one to mourn his absence
a woman sits beside him, whom he never knew in life
his sentence caused him so much pain.

Sad and alone she approaches the man who will take...
perhaps no one will see her cry.

Prayers among fake laments drowned out by another sermon
while she covers the body, embracing it
no one remembers the name except to raise their voice
to curse death out of fear of their turn.

I curse such cynicism, you only look out for yourselves
and others have been left behind...

But the day will come when souls will smile
when you and I, together once more
and the moment will come when so much lament
comes to an end and will not return.

It's time to leave, to leave everything behind
Sentenced to see the world without feeling a second
and now that I have found you, I long to be by your side.
