Shadows Fall - Eternity Is Within

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

Science has done it 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 please and plenty Living for an intangible
In a future clouded with doubt.

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

One step forward is one step
deeper into the grave.

Breathe... breath of life.

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