Shadows Fall - Eternity Is Within

Man has programmed himself to die.
A death wish has been ingrained.
Almost with our first breath,
We are taught to expect our last.

Science has done its best to choke off
The true instincts of mankind
Death is impatient and thoughtless
Mortality is a disease of the mind

Embrace the gifts before you.
Paradise is underfoot
Eternity is within.

Lost site of the bounty before us
Boundless resource of pleasure and pleny
Living for an intangible

In a future clouded with doubt.

One step forward is one step deeper into the grave

Breath... breath of life.
