Vita Nova

Waiting for our turn, will we watch the world burn
(Vita nova, vita nova)

World's forever seemingly so old
Words from scripture told now feel so cold
The love you know is bounded how it's sold
But you'd never know

So together, but still so alone
Some now reaping sickness that they've sown
Suffocating from upon the throne
Sinking down below

Waiting for our turn, will we watch the world burn

Bury, bury the dead
Every life that comes next
Buries the dead

Lives forever seemingly in fear
Days, weeks, and months turn to years
The life you know is no longer so clear
Like the end is near
Make way for new life

Waiting for our turn, will we watch the world burn

Bury, bury the dead
Every life that comes next
Buries the dead

(Vita nova, vita nova)
Bury the, bury the dead
Life born again

Dead bury the dead
Our life as we know it (dead within)
Our life as we know it (born again)

Bury, bury the dead
Every life that comes next
Buries the dead

Waiting for our turn, will we watch the world burn
(Vita nova, vita nova)
Bury the, bury the dead
Finally, new life come next
