The Cemetery Lights Up

(A Tribute to Per Yngve Ohlin & Øystein Årseth)

Another life passed by, in the void of dreams
Unfullfilled promises of a future never seen
The blue light that passes beyond the sight
Still lingers in the memory, recalling the pain

A pain of existence, of the remaining consciousness
Netherworldly shapes that float in the distance
A carousel of cremated minds, notions of bleakness
In the cold of the moon the cemetery lights up again

The cemetery lights up again
Just like in ancient times
When the dead lingered
Over the grave of the soul

Those humans that died, so very long ago
In the pain that never was, never truly real
Only a blue light that passes beyond the sight
The past never was, the future never shall be
