Last December - Iced Earth

The howling winds blow on this moonlit night

Eyes locked in fear with a dark embrace

Bitter cold winds freeze the tears that fall

Hands held in grace as we take the final step

Obsessed with our love

Here is our fate

To need the final call

On this special winter day

A message to our elders

They surely won’t forget

Our love must last forever

In death we shall not part

It seems like only yesterday

Our lives together planned

They say it’s just a passing phase

We’re damned by our youth

Why does no-one understand what we have is real?

This is not your average love

It’s forever

Last December

Mother, you have forced us here

Last December

Father, now we’ll disappear

Last December

One last step, we fade away

Take the final step

Heed the final call

Together we are strong

Divided we must fall

Teenage suicide

Our only way out

Together we might live

Divided we must fall

Last December

Mother, you have forced us here

Last December

Father, now we’ll disappear

Last December

One last step, we fade away
