After Life's Illusion

To the spirits I come Away from the flesh of existence And know everything I am Exist somewhere in another form although that form is conscious It is not really human To the shadows I form and know this shadow is merely me Using another anatomy lurking behind the door Until you can't see me no more I exist as darkness and give it meaning To the light I go The only light I'll ever know That gives my soul existence and my spirit soon follows away from this rotting corpse This corpse we think is ourselves
