Golden Shell Lyrics

Grasping at barren limbs
This fruitless and futile feast
Kneel before the precipice
All answers out of reach

Bind myself
Obscure all sight
Enshrouded in a veil of gold

Relax, be at peace
Set your mind at ease

Progress - I’ve made enough
Stasis and complacency

Relax, be at peace
Set your mind at ease

Blindness - I see what I want
Mindless - No choices left to make
Time is always on my side
“Good things come to those who wait”
But I’m tired of waiting

Tear myself out of this coma
Shedding off this chrysalis

No long prisoner of this golden shell
Destroy this mirage of comfort and stop fooling oneself

Know thyself and cast aside
All dogmas of untruth
Tell myself I am in control
I control my fate, and I alone
I am my own god
