[intro] [Verse] Companions, gather round It's time for me to leave Say farewell, Hope I dodge hell Salute if I honored thee Shroud me in white vestments Lay me out on the bed won't be long, I'll soon be gone Into the pathways of the dead [chorus] Come ferryman, here's your fee I pray be ye gentle with me Say of me only what is true Now my labors are all through Sin eater, I've a task for thee As I pass into eternity Grab the bread, the salt and pray It's a Burying Day Lovers, I recall you all Does it go both ways? My enemies, no priority As I drift into the gray My goods I give all away Don't need 'em where I go Out into the the great beyond Into the liminal unknown! [chorus] Come ferryman, here's your fee I pray be ye gentle with me Say of me only what is true Now my labors are all through Sin eater, I've a task for thee As I pass into eternity Grab the bread, the salt and pray It's a Burying Day [solo] [Verse] My final words are spoken Give unto me last rites I've got no more on my list No battles left to fight This gentle night I embrace I bid you all adieu See you on the other side When your time comes due! [chorus] Come ferryman, here's your fee I pray be ye gentle with me Say of me only what is true Now my labors are all through Sin eater, I've a task for thee As I pass into eternity Grab the bread, the salt and pray Why don't you pray? Come ferryman, here's your fee I pray be ye gentle with me Say of me only what is true Now my labors are all through Sin eater, I've a task for thee As I pass into eternity Grab the bread, the salt and pray It's a Burying Day [closing] [outro]
