Forsake the Flesh
I saw the shadows
Dance on the embers
Cold resignation
Bleak instigation
Denial dispels these trials
Inertia between the wings
Your sullen eyes beheld the fevers
Innumerable sufferings barren of remedy
Venerable fate usurped by grace
Darkness behind
Forsake the flesh
The trivial clockwork of design
Redeem your inverted soul
Shed the burden of this plain
But a reverie
Of this smoke
Chorus of
Chanting ghosts
Body of hindmost
Send yourself back home
Your sullen eyes beheld the fevers
Innumerable sufferings barren of remedy
Venerable fate usurped by grace
Darkness behind
Forsake the flesh
The trivial clockwork of design
Redeem your inverted soul
Shed the burden of this plain
Don't hold back the time
As you pass beyond the pale
Your mortal coil unwinds
Forsake this carnal shell
Dance on the embers
Cold resignation
Bleak instigation
Denial dispels these trials
Inertia between the wings
Your sullen eyes beheld the fevers
Innumerable sufferings barren of remedy
Venerable fate usurped by grace
Darkness behind
Forsake the flesh
The trivial clockwork of design
Redeem your inverted soul
Shed the burden of this plain
But a reverie
Of this smoke
Chorus of
Chanting ghosts
Body of hindmost
Send yourself back home
Your sullen eyes beheld the fevers
Innumerable sufferings barren of remedy
Venerable fate usurped by grace
Darkness behind
Forsake the flesh
The trivial clockwork of design
Redeem your inverted soul
Shed the burden of this plain
Don't hold back the time
As you pass beyond the pale
Your mortal coil unwinds
Forsake this carnal shell
