It takes all his will to suppress to scream And as he walks away his shadows leave no trace In contemplation of death He lingers alone in the northern lights He is just a reflection In a sea of bliss He finds contentment in irrelevance In contemplation (of death) There is a curse upon us all Will you renounce this world Or through denial you set the path to everlasting harm From this world he feels detached He is the alien that sees the weakness therein A single day is thousand years That were spent in vain when there is only pain He walks through fire ignites himself and disengages No other place to him causes serenity Where truth and beauty all have become palpable In contemplation (of death) There is a curse upon us all will you renounce the world Or through denial you set the path to everlasting harm
