lyrics

I could live on, free from strife (or concerns conferred on a mortal life) but the years crystallize as these occlusions in my mind. No matter where I lay my bones, the past still runs the path I chose. Gone in all but memory, my history defines me. The price is paid by those I've left within my wake. I'd look back casually, but the casualties are piled miles wide. I've served the infinite, as the transient, it rots. In time, so might I (with faces, names, and transgressions forgotten) only to rise again; this thread, woven without end. You call it necromancy, I'll call it reinvention. People and problems wither away. With every bygone age, I thrive. How am I to reconcile my existence? No gods nor men of science will listen to my plea for mortality. Every reanimation fragments an already fragile psyche. Successive iterations split and splinter, shredding my humanity. You call it necromancy, I'll call it self-preservation. I've tried to end this life— but eternity, she holds control. My desperation goes unrecognized. The youth I used to prize, now my curse as those I love all pass me by and pass away. Now they wait for me to rejoin them in the next life.
Why can't I?
