Lower The Flags Lyrics - Sentenced

He's gone, he is dead 

His remains upon the hearse ahead 

As silently we wander through the mist 

He's free 

This is the end 

Your journey's over, night descends 

Below... Into the abyss 

Farewell, my friend, you will be missed 

Lower the flags 

A good man has passed 

He has reached the last of frontiers 

Lower the flags 

Down to half-mast 

For again the world has taken a turn for the worse 

He's gone, he is dead 

Six feet of earth upon his head 

Now lay your wreaths 

Upon the one who lies beneath 

Although you're gone 

In memories you shall live on 

Asleep... In peace now rest 

The weight of the world is off your chest 

Lower the flags 

A good man has passed 

He has reached the last of frontiers 

Lower the flags 

Down to half-mast 

For again the world has taken a turn for the worse 

That mourning light I'll always remember 

And these August nights; cold as December 

Lower the flags 

A good man has passed 

He has reached the last of frontiers 

Lower the flags 

Down to half-mast 

For again the world has taken a turn for the worse
