Eternity Is Within

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

    Science has done its 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 pleasure and plenty
    Living for an intangible
    In a future clouded with doubt

    One step forward is one step
    deeper into the grave

    Breathe, breath of life Writer/s: BRIAN FAIR, JASON BITTNER, JONATHAN DONAIS, MATTHEW BACHAND, PAUL ROMANKO
