Adora Vivos Woods of Ypres

[Refrain]
A moment of silence, but not one moment more
The dead are to be forgotten, we are here to be adored

[Verse 1]
Look me in the eyes, don't believe a word they say
For life is good, life is glory
Though we live one life only
Tell me in real time, don't hesitate to profess
Love me in the flesh
Don't wait till death to sing my praise

[Chorus]
A moment of silence, but not one moment more
The dead are to be forgotten, we are here to be adored
In the bleak life and modern times
Under grey skies and electric light
Mortal men are living gods
More real than any god ever was

[Post-Chorus]
Adora vivos, our people are civilized
Love the living while they're still alive
Adora vivos, our people are civilized
We shouldn't worship the dead
We shouldn't worship the dead
We shouldn't worship the dead
We shouldn't worship the dead
We shouldn't worship the dead
We shouldn't worship the dead
We shouldn't worship the dead
We shouldn't worship the dead
We shouldn't worship the dead
We shouldn't worship the dead
