Shadowthrone - Mortality Lyrics

As I look at my face in the mirror
I see the wounds caused by the time
What was innocent and clear formerly
Today it’s filthy by the dirts of the world

As I look at him, and see as it changes
I feel the breath of death and destruction on it
It’s beauty and grace charms me sometimes
Then the sorrow of the mortality dominates me

In the desert of eternity
Our life is just a grain of dust
But this grain of dust is the all for us
And we’ll never die, leaving our mark

The body of my friends keeps atrophy
My future runs out, too, only the past remains
Death only takes what’s not worthy of life away
So mortality is nothing else, as a purgatory

As I walk in the sea of life
Salty water more and more bites my body
Large waves attack me
And I feel, as my lung is filling up with the water of death

In the desert of eternity
Our life is just a grain of dust
But this grain of dust is the all for us
And we’ll never die, leaving our mark

But this grain of dust is the all for us
And we’ll never die, leaving our mark
