Lyrics
The Conqueror Worm
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The bell tolls up on the hill calling mourners to arrive
The coffin on altar shrouded in flowers a mute monolith of death
From the bible the priest reads his words won't soothe the grief
All roads they lead to a grave
In death we're all the same
No matter what you've earned or found
Your carcass will lie rotting in the ground
In the end only death will prevail
All struggle, striving... all in vain
The only hero there is the Conqueror Worm
No kingdom of heaven for you my friend
When the lid is nailed it is the end
Icy rain falls down as the coffin is laid down to the earth
Thus a life ends but questions remain is this really all there is
It seems so futile this earthly yoke
When the only reward is a cold damp grave
