Somewhere a shadow I shall be
Existing inside eternity
Finding there my every move
A world without a need for time
Forever I walk where others hide
A burning thirst I feel inside
Strike me down-my soul to fly
[CHORUS]
Eternal
The infinite wasteland
Immortality's great demand
Alone in desperate salvation
A vision in ghostly dreams
Unknown to light or darkness
I possess the void in between
Can memories replace my existence
Does it matter in the end?
Which eternal path we've taken
Be it truth, deception, pain or fear"
[This song is part II of the "Dreams" trilogy. It explores the darker side of]
[immortality and even asks whether it is ultimately desirable. To live forever is]
[to have no hopes or dreams, nothing more to be gained, only endless]
