Marduk - Life's Emblem lyrics
Upon that storied marble cast thine eye The scene commands a moralizing sigh E�en in Areardias blessed Elysium plains Amidst the laughing nymphs and sparkling flames Life�s emblem here, in youth and vernal bloom But reasons finger pointing at the� See festal joy subside, with melting grace And pity visit the half smiling face Where now the dance, the hate, the nuptial feast The passion throbbing in the lover�s breast Life�s emblem here, in youth and vernal bloom But reason�s finger pointing at the tomb! Man: So say me noble stranger, what brings you here this night? Death: I have come to release you from the bitter taste of life Man: Why me? Why now? It cannot be my time Death: Everything that falls to the ground is mine! Upon that storied marble cast thine eye The scene commands a moralizing sigh E�en in Areardias blessed Elysium plains Amidst the laughing nymphs and sparkling flames See festal joy subside, with melting grace And pity visit the half smiling face Where now the dance, the hate, the nuptial feast The passion throbbing in the lover�s breast Life�s emblem here, in youth and vernal bloom But reason�s finger pointing at the� See festal joy subside, with melting grace And pity visit the half smiling face Where now the dance, the hate, the nuptial feast The passion throbbing in the lover�s breast Life�s emblem here, in youth and vernal bloom But reason�s finger pointing at the tomb! Man: But in youth am I still, and in flesh am I strong Death: And I have a disease for every sin that you have done Man: But I�ve done nothing wrong, nothing bad or untrue Death: Neither God or Devil agrees with you! |
