Mistwalker - I Am Corpse

My soul has not been spared
It's been ripped out and crushed into the ground
I thought for months that death was over
But now I find that it's coming back to haunt me

When I see through the hazy trees
I gaze upon my tombstone erected tall
A cemented place for my being
A monument to all sins, both yours and mine

I tried to fight what I couldn't see
But now that my vision is clear I watch my own defeat
Felled to the floor in a blinding vitriol
The result of only seconds of confrontation

I am corpse
Living walking death
I am corpse
A breathing husk of my former self
I am corpse
How could I see the light?
I am corpse
When an eclipse continues to shade me

My skull aches with thoughts of lies
Thoughts of betrayal, the knife seeping through my back
No matter what I do to stave it
I find I'm always crucified in the end

So leave my body be
I'll project from this world into another
And my cadaver shall walk the earth
To remind them all of what I fucking suffered

I am corpse
Living walking death
I am corpse
A breathing husk of my former self
I am corpse
How could I see the light?
I am corpse
When an eclipse continues to shade me

I am corpse
All that remains of me
I am corpse
A statue of my thoughts
I am corpse
You'll see me walking
I am corpse
Shrouded in the mists of time

Purgatory
Purgatory
Purgatory
Purgatory

This is solitary confinement
Imagine the body striding through the fog
Aimless in its destination
Only walking as a dead reminder

Is it myself or is it not?
A double-sided mirror for my interior
I know not the answer
So tell me, how would you destroy me?
