Tombstones Songtext / Lyric

TOMBSTONES MADE OF MARBLE
NAMES CARVED IN GRANITE
MUFFLED VOICES, SORROW FACES
HERE THEY REST IN PEACE
GREAT THINKERS AND LITTLE SPIRITS
FAMOUS AND NOTORIOUS PEOPLE
MANY OF THEM ARE FORGOTTEN
OTHERS ARE HONORED BY
TOURISTS, FANS AND PILGRIMS

FLOWERS GLOSS OVER
THE HOPELESSNESS OF THE WORLD OF DEATH
AGAINST THE DEATH WE CAN´T DO ANYTHING
BUT ONE MAN STARTED AGAINST IT
HE HAS DECLARED THE WAR AGAINST IT
AND HE HAS WON
WHO SEEKS JESUS ON THE CEMETERY
IS AT THE WRONG PLACE

HIS TOMB IS EMPTY
THE ONE WHO KNOWS THIS
IS NO LONGER A CHILD OF DESPAIR
NO FLOWERS FOR A DEAD BODY
BUT MY LIFE FOR A LIVING GOD
JESUS LIVES
