"Eternity Is Within" lyrics - SHADOWS FALL

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

Science has done it 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 please and plenty
Living for an intangible
In a future clouded with doubt

Embrace the gifts before you
Paradise is underfoot
Eternity is within

One step forward is one step
Deeper into the grave

Breathe... breath of life

Embrace the gifts before you
Paradise is underfoot
Eternity is within
