It seems as clear as yesterday
  We saw it in a dream
  but dream became insanity
  an awful gaping scream
  So sad to see such emptiness
  So sad to see such tears
  And heaped up leaves of bitterness
  turned mouldy down the years
  
  Nothing but the truth.
  Common words in use
  Hard to find excuse
  Harder than the truth
  
  Like Icarus we flew too high
  We flew too near the sun
  They caught us in that awful glare
  Our hapless throats were strung
  But just before the final stroke
  They took us victims of the rope
  And cast us far beyond the deep
  To lie in never ending sleep
  
  It seems as clear as yesterday
  They cast us in the deep
  We lie in darkest night for good
  Never ending sleep
  A never ending bitter gloom
  Whose dungeon seldom clears
  A God forsaken emptiness
  Which fills our hearts with tears
