In the Realm of the Living Lyrics by Atlas Volt

Memento Mori

2015

You take without forgetting
And you give without remembering
In the realm of the living
In the realm of the living
All the love that you bring
Makes your life worth remembering
But you gave up on searching
For the proof that is missing
‘Cause you might think your life has no meaning
Until you find a cause worth defending
Life is too short to believe in
Anything that’s keeping you from thinking
You claim that your soul’s everlasting
But please don’t mind if I think that you are lying … To yourself
You keep on repeating
That reason’s misleading
And I blame you for trying
To deceive and for lying
When the reaper is calling
As your life keeps on fading
Will you keep on pretending?
That you know where you’re going
But you might think that afterlife is a blessing
No, it’s a selfish dream that you’re dreaming
Heaven and Hell is in your mind
They both belong to the infancy of mankind
You might say that I am mistaken
But in the end who’s the one believing in …
Fairy tales
Sometimes I feel like we’re all regressing
I hear you pray and I think it’s embarrassing
Life is too short to be doing
Anything that keeps you from achieving
You claim that your soul’s everlasting
But please don’t mind if I think that you are lying … To yourself
