In dark mists, a carcass lays black
Ruined, forgotten, never to come back
Here, a specter, shrouded in old rage
Arises from memory, from its fleshen cage
-
In a state beyond the veil of mortal existence
The earthen sight is lost, fading
..into an unworldly void...
Void speaks of times, free in this dimension
With twilight lasting; a shade to not be seen
Void speaks of times, free in this dimension
With closure lasting; a tragedy set free
-
In a state beyond the veil of mortal existence
The earthen sight is now no more
-
This hereafter, of post mortem shade
Is bliss, alone, not as life portrayed
In lying far beyond, remorse turns to prose
And the senses nostalgic, now no longer woe
-
This void grows dark
Man fears of going too far
This void is mine
Man fears it's not right
-
Void speaks of times
Man speaks of times
-
A corpse can dream!
-
Man speaks of times, free from this dimension
Where beauty is found; in sorrow, anger, glee
Man speaks of times, free from this dimension
Where one feels, dreams, believes, where one feels, dreams, believes
-
In a state beyond the veil of mortal existence
The earthen sight has been forgotten
-
Immortal, the spirit is not free
And the veil still holds, the veil barely seen
Do I cross and leave this place, the ethereal floating hall?
To find my ancient corpse, and heed its lonely call?
-
Man speaks of times, free from this dimension
Where beauty is found; in sorrow, anger, glee
Man speaks of times, free from this dimension
Where one feels, dreams, believes, where one feels, dreams, believes
