After All

After all they'll frame me in the coffin

After all they'll raise for me a stone

After all they'll shower me with flowers

Before worms gnaw upon my bones

After all they'll light for me a candle

After all they'll play my favourite song

After all they'll mourn my poor existence

Before finally leaving me alone

Between the fresh dug graves they stand

Memories still remain

Singing songs of misery, will still remain the same

Now the white light is calling

I spread my wings and fly away

Soar in silent peace until the end of days

After all they'll light for me a candle

After all they' ll carve my name in stone

After all they'll share some funny anecdotes

Before finally leaving me on my own

 

After all they'll meet me in a chapel

After all they'll shed a single tear

After all they'll offer me an embarrassed smile

Before they finally disappear

After all they'll wipe me from their memories

After all my picture will fade away

After all I will remain forgotten

After all there is nothing more to say

After all they'll frame me in the coffin

After all they'll raise for me a stone

After all they'll shower me with flowers

Before worms gnaw upon my bones
