Lyrics Mind's Mirrors / In Death - Is Life / In Death - Is Death (Live) - Meshuggah

The feeding frenzy of my starving soul
Gnawing voraciously at the bones
The exo-skeletal patchwork protecting my own reflection within
The twin-and-same engaged in the mirrored act of chewing away
At the shell of my attacking self, the paradox unseen

Treacherous this deceit to make no choice matter
To have and yet lose yourself
Until finally all reasons why are forgotten
To live through ones own shadow
Mute and blinded, is to really see
Eclipse the golden mirror and the reflection is set free

So imminently visible – this cloaked innocent guilt
Sentenced to a lifetime, a second of structured chaos
Trampled by the ferocious, raging crowds of solitude
I'm the soil beneath me soaking up the sustenance of my own death

Extradited to the gods of chance, the deities of all things random
Alive, multicolored, twitching in their dead monochrome world Iridescent to the searhing eyes, I m all things vivid in a
World of grey
So easily spotted, so easily claimed in this domain where
All is prey

My thoughts a radiant beacon to the omnidirectional
Hunter-god radar
I m a markerlight of flesh to these subconscious carnivores
I am them. I am teeth. I m their arousal at the kill
Feasting on self. A schizoreality warp. The contradiction
Fulfilled

Focus the only means to see me back to life s unending swirl

A reversal of passing away, as the world of dead, as away is
Now my origin
