You will return
Return to dust
You will turn, return to dust
Turn to the sun
Like me, turn to the sun
Turn to the light
Turn to the light
If there's an eye still open, grieving
Sweet sleep, close it for me
Turn your heart, your poor heart
It will only find rest
when it has stopped beating
Turn to peace
Turn to peace
This is the only road that leads you home
I am your pale companion
I mirror your pain
I was your shadow
All those long nights
All those days long passed
Listen to me, listen to me
This message is for you
Where I am now all sorrow is gone
Where I am now all lovers are together
Where I am now
In my arms only will you find rest
Gentle rest
