Illusions of Eternity

In the depths of denial we blindly march
Ignoring the ticking clock in our endless arch

Eternal dreams in mortal shells a paradox we embrace
Living like gods in a fleeting human race

For in the acceptance of our finite days
Lies the wisdom the eternal blaze

Human paradox a dance with time
Pretending to be immortal a never ending life
A fleeting moment we refuse to see
Bound by chains pretending to be free

We build our empires reaching for the sky
Forgetting the ground where our roots lie

In the mirror of time our reflections fade
Yet we act invincible in this masquerade

We play with fire but we never burn
Dancing on the edge taking every turn

Human paradox a dance with time
Pretending to be immortal a never ending life
A fleeting moment we refuse to see
Bound by chains pretending to be free

Human paradox a dance with time
Pretending to be immortal a never ending life
A fleeting moment we refuse to see
Bound by chains pretending to be free

We are but a whisper in the winds of time
Eternal souls living a mortal life

Let's live not as if we'll forever roam
But as travelers making our way home
