Degrees of Truth - Deep Six Lyrics

May the Mistral rise and blow
May the wintry mantle fall
May it dye this scenery in white
This silent field of stones
Bitter and wide
"May their spirit rest" the letters cry, but
The echo of screams, these scars will stay

Bury all our hope and our dreams
The ruins of our world, our own kin
The pitiful beliefs and the pride
Bury all the progeny of mankind
What is the point in regret and wails
Awareness always comes far too late

Can you tell me where the sense is
Living on when death is all we achieve
What other way can we try
Dig your grave, foolish child
Do you believe you can survive
Bear the consequence of matricide
Come on, face your demise

Bury Hope, let Despair lead you to thy grave
Bury Hope, enter Hell, come inside!
(The warmth of Life shall fade)
Bury Hope, for Eden's land has been lost
(Heaven is lost if there was one)

May silence cover the Earth
May Ammit devour us all
End the song of Mankind
Dire song, turned into the dirge for Life

From now on we can't change our way
Can't you look the Truth in the eyes
The lesson we did learn
Oh, sure, you failed for the last time

Tears may well fall over silent graves
'Till new flames will shred the world again
Memories fade as time flows
We forget and it's all vain!
Bury every sterile seed of hope
May shadows of hell feast
Upon this blasted kind (Six feet underground)
