Beauty of Mortality Lyrics


From war afar he has fought

He returns home alone

A sickness took his beloved ones

While He fought in the name of god

He felt betrayed by his god

wrath in his body flows

a final embrace, his hearts decree,

Trading his dearest, loves poignant plea

No longer will I bow to a God

so unjust and cold deviating from the path once held so tight

He faded away until the other day

greeted by the sun and familiar noise

Death means eternal peace

It’s kept away from me

without prospect of relief

I try to find my peace

While yearning for the end

without salvation for my soul

Unaging he was cast out

this secret frightens all

A tale unfolds of a man unbound,

a lonely soul caught in eternal pight

Since then he wandered through land and time

he saw empires wane,

Saw over the different centuries,

history just repeats.

300 years alive

Found places and friends worldwide

my mortal facade that had thousands of names to hide

Every few years near that my mascarade falls

I have to leave all behind what this episode gained

Death means eternal peace

It’s kept away from me

without prospect of relief

I try to find my peace

While yearning for the end

without salvation for my soul

World wars, Lies and exploitation

Times red thread

Maybe this time the curse can be broken

As i wished often

And i will die

Prayers brought me into this misery

Faith has let me down, who has heard me cry?

You should have let me die

Could you not have ignored me again back then?

Like you ever did, what I sought for myself

haunts me eternally.

Beauty of Mortality

Death is the beauty of mortality.
