Lyrics
How can you understand this pain?
Living through hate and war again.
Harvested by the winds of time,
My soul tries to escape but can only try.
Watching those before me fall,
Everything dies for me to see,
The bark peels slowly from every tree,
I know I can not feel this release.
Immortality I was born into,
My face preserves a mortal mask,
Hiding inside is what cannot die,
My restless soul gazes up into the sky.
And all the mortals work hard to convince themselves,
That death should not be feared,
But this is the single thing that I lack,
The future of this cursed body unclear.
If I were immortal,
How would I live?
I'd step away from civilization,
Release all attachments,
How could I sit and watch my friends die?
Time and time again, I'd live on longer than them,
And what would I do when Humans destroy their planet?
Would I live, floating in space with the remaining debris?
Or would I finally see the end to this nightmare of Immortality?
Begging for my life to be taken,
Suicide never works, turns into just another verse
In this life that I was given that I never cared to recieve, why was this done to me?
Damned to never advance for eternity,
chained to this fence they call Earth,
My skin never withers away,
But nothing's ever here to stay.
Time stands still, in this dream-like reality,
Wherever I land in my sleep is where I'd rather be,
I walk with sorrow without care of tommorow,
The sun sets, tainting the rest, laughing at me with no mercy.
Inability to advance is the worst punishment,
But for what? I was born this way, If it was a price its been paid,
Perhaps in a distant locked away memory that I cannot find,
Is the reason why I have this body that never saw the light of time.
