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
