Only Yesterday lyrics

They were here only yesterday

But eternity crept in quick

And stole them away unpaid

A bounty to fill the gaping loss

All thoughts of good or bad

Have all fall into the maelstrom

That draws life and life to it

And spares none overdue age

Their efforts and toils silenced

Finished worthy or not given so

Their absence seeping emptiness

That trickles with the tears

Inner questions, inner rage

All illusions interred with them

Ideals conflicts remain ready

Until it's culling call comes again
