The Crowned Corpse in the Attic Lyrics


Dreams last only a few moments

the rest of the time, we stay unconscious

all is in the brain therefore when we die there is nothing left

the afterlife is just a belief here to reassure us, but we’ll stay

unconscious and senseless for ever.

Since I was a child I tried to step out of this fear

Night terrors, swallow, sear; struggling with emptiness until

the void has appeared

Death is just something that comes

from you to the others

All that’s left of us is the memory

of those who will die soon

you have nothing to expect because life owes you nothing

All that’s left of us is the memory of those who will die soon

you have nothing to expect because life owes you nothing

Since I was a child I tried to step out of this fear

Night terrors, swallow, sear; struggling with emptiness until

the void has appeared

you prefer to stay put rather than retreat

I stay in motion
