Beyond the Shell Songtext
von Lorekeeper

Disconnected
From the mind and the body
My soul
Is drifting
Away from me

I have seen my bones
I have felt my skin
Unconscious impulses
Chain a bond to them
A fire in the liver
Burns away my flesh
Bursting the stitches
Salted wounds afresh

Disfigured and contorted
A nameless heap of flesh
The body
Unneeded
For what happens next


An essence
Vacates the living shell
Unguided
Destination too obscure to tell

My mind
My body
My heart
My soul

Your home
Your eternity
Your rotted bones

The sky
Tears open
To a burning sun
Staring
At the light
It all becomes one

Forgetting
The body
The cosmos
Offers its hand


Shooting out into the void
At the speed of light
Unbounded by the vessel that
Once held you tight

Beyond the border
Beyond the shell
A vast expanse of nothingness
An eternity of hell
