The Eternal Lyrics - Closer - Joy Division

Procession moves on, the shouting is over 

Praise to the glory of loved ones now gone 

Talking aloud as they sit round their tables 

Scattering flowers washed down by the rain 

Stood by the gate at the foot of the garden 

Watching them pass like clouds in the sky 

Try to cry out in the heat of the moment 

Possessed by a fury that burns from inside 

Cry like a child, though these years make me older 

With children my time is so wastefully spent 

A burden to keep, though their inner communion 

Accept like a curse an unlucky deal

HOT SONG: Sebastián Yatra, Daddy Yankee, Natti Natasha ft. Jonas Brothers - 'Runaway' - LYRICS 

Played by the gate at the foot of the garden 

My view stretches out from the fence to the wall 

No words could explain, no actions determine 

Just watching the trees and the leaves as they fall
