Ritual

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Remembering promises Once made but now unspoken Born of child like minds These shadows of the past are now forsaken [Chorus 1] From the dawn of your first day To this death bed on which you lay To survive we must comply With the ritual of your life [Verse 2] Can you remember things we said The dreams our expectations Like ashes scattered in the wind There is no recollection [Chorus 2] Throughout the passing years Faith will allay your fears Follow the holy rites In the ritual of your life [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] Life; an endless ritual Continuation perpetual [Chorus 2] Throughout the passing years Faith will allay your fears Follow the holy rites In the ritual of you life [Verse 3] Try to remember if you can The pacts we made most solemn Hands of time have brought decay Those memories are forgotten [Chorus 3] Now as you reach the end All pain you must transcend When you die you can't deny The ritual of your life
