Ego Death
Journey Through Cosmic DescentLyrics
Imperfect selection
Imperfect choices lead to undesirable outcomes.
Drives the solemn soul astray
A flawed decision guides the solemn soul off course.
Casting it away with dire force
Forcefully abandoning it with dire consequences.
Unwilling submission
Reluctant surrender to external influences.
Desolates my ways
Leads to desolation in my path.
As I brace myself for the worst
Preparing for the worst.
I’m being dragged across the cosmos
Being forcefully taken across the cosmos.
Slowly losing sight of myself
Gradually losing awareness of oneself.
As I further descend deeper into hell
Descending deeper into a perceived hell.
Or so I thought...
Realizing the perception may be misleading.
Stripped clean from every grasp
Stripped of every hold on reality.
On reality
Disconnected from the tangible world.
My brain being picked apart
Mentally dissected until little remains.
till there’s not much left of me
Reduced to fragments.
Rearrange the pieces
Reorganize the shattered aspects.
Scattered throughout the
Scattered pieces exist in the void.
Void
The emptiness and vastness that surround.
Stitch back the molten flesh
Restore the melted flesh to completeness.
Reassemble my...
Reassemble my life from fragments.
Life from smithereens
Rebuilding from broken pieces.
Lift me back to the surface
Request to be lifted back to the surface.
I’ll reemerge anew
Emerging anew after the reconstruction.
Bring forth the reckoning
Call for a judgment day or settling of scores.
The trail of static
The aftermath of destruction marked by static.
Scorched across through oblivion
A path scorched through oblivion.
Is a reminder set in stone
A lasting reminder etched in stone.
Bring forth the reckoning
A call for judgment day or settling of scores (repeated).
Letting it all sink in
Acknowledging and internalizing the situation.
Busting wide open the gates of perception
Opening the gates of perception wide.
I suddenly give in to the realization
Suddenly surrendering to a realization.
And let myself go
Letting go in the face of the unknown.
In this myriad of constellations
Within a myriad of constellations.
Experiencing the unknown
Embracing the experience of the unknown.
Oh what a sight to behold
Expressing awe at the remarkable sight.
I feel the entire existence
Sensing the entirety of existence.
Right at my own fingertips
Feeling in control of the universe.
I am whole - I am one
Achieving a sense of completeness and unity.
With the universe at last
Finally, becoming one with the universe.
