"I Have Seen Where It Grows" lyrics - DEMON HUNTER

DEMON HUNTER
"I Have Seen Where It Grows"

A shell for the earth, all seasons reverse
A life inside out in a jet-black hearse
The feel of pain and the taste of dirt
A darkened sky and the loss of worth
Lower me down under glorious green
Eternity waits on a broken machine
Exit the soul in a vibrant white
Leaving the shell in the dead of night

[Pre-Chorus:]
Life is a path; death a destination
Life is a path; death a destination

[Chorus:]
I've met the end of being, my eyes are open wide
I feel myself depleting, and watch my body die

A step to the throne, I stand alone
A vacant mind and a destined home
Engaging the end in a seamless gaze
Like blind I climb through the tortured blaze
Raise me up into white unstained
Eternity gained, only life remains
Forever the scars have been washed away
Like blood on the brow of a forgotten day

[Pre-Chorus:]
Life is a path; death a destination
Life is a path; death a destination

[Chorus:]
Ive met the end of being, my eyes are open wide
I feel myself depleting, and watch my body die

[Outro:]
Life (life) is a path, death (death) a destination
