Someone Died

Someone Died
A withered man is lying
In a hole dug in the earth
And I suppose the crying
Are from those who knew his worth
Shadows once were taller
Then this body it appears
I know nothing of how he died
But in a stone face there is no fear
And there is loathing
And in this hate
There is betrayal
For the man who's at the gate
But we are gathered
To dismiss another one
Although they'd rather
He'd not be gone
Here lies a forgotten memory
Here lies a tear upon a face
Here lies "what would we
ever do without you?"
Here lies, here lies
Hidden in a capsule
In a cavity like this
Oh, there is nothing
Just another to dismiss
