derelict earth - trapped in a flesh cocoon lyrics

waking up in a claustrophobic incubus
confined in an entelechy deprived prison
lost soul drifting endlessly in the erebus
in eternal torpor, never to arisen

vanitas vanitatum omnia vanitas…
no elusive meaning is ever to be found
neither in any religious galimatias
nor above the slowly growing scientific mound

we were given the poisoned chalice of sentience
but kept out of reach of the knowledge we beg for
like tantalus, in everlasting sufferance
we will never quench our anguishing thirst for lore

reality will never satisfy our mind’s needs
we are evermore trapped in a frail sh+ll that bleeds
squalidly immured from within our erring clay
with just serotonin for the pain to allay
self+injected chemical to confine the spirit
until the body rejects it as mere vomit

i wish i could fly away, breaking these shackles
but only death will make this glass cage’s walls crackles
awaiting the final days, longing for a dirge
trapped in a flesh cocoon, expecting to emerge…
transcending this decrepit earthly attachment
will never be more than utter delirament
doomed to experience mortals negative feelings
obsessed by our transient, wasteful belongings
ephemeral creatures, blind to our future
and in present time victims of our past’s torture
lost amidst a crowd of judgemental strangers
caring about the body while the mind festers

dried are the tears of senselessness acceptance…
the cynicism is growing along senescence
realistic vision of a nonexistent beyond
where any hopes of an hereafter are fond…

weaknesses embodied in carnal imperfection
abstruse, loathly, repelling carcass we are in
organic hindrance from the cradle to the coffin
vehicle of a mind beaten into submission
