[Lyric] Absentia (Aethereus)

Gone but not forgotten
Set adrift in a cosmic sea

Forever blind in the depths of I, searching for a glimpse of light
Forever alone, drifting in the void, paralyzed from head to toe;
Dense mass unable to move, mutilated nerves forever lost;
Calling on extremities just to feel the earth below

Just to feel soil
Sifting between flesh and bone

Halting for no one; time endlessly careening
Through an endless loop of infinity

Clenching impossibility, yearning for eternity
Drowning in misery
Take a vow to reform I, grasping to a blink of an eye;
In sleepless nights, dwell upon a life that is no more

Life is no more
A pestilent air fills my lungs
Poison courses through my veins
Choking on absolution
Till the day I awake

And find bodies which never decay
Where memories never fade
Never lost;
In absentia, my soul languishes

In absentia, my soul languishes

Gone, but not forgotten
Set adrift in a cosmic sea
Time endlessly careening
Through an endless loop of infinity
A life that is no more
