Spirit In A Vacuum — Mortiis

Mental Maelstrom beckons me, To fall into the core. The Centre of the universe, Mocks me forevermore.

Who awoke the engine when i could not its key? Who landed me upon this place, This island in the sea?

(There's) four or five thousand clouds, All inside my head. I'm looking for the mind i had, How long has it been dead?

Eighteen thousand Million years, with Aeons in between. Cannot save me from my fears, Of things i might have seen.

What did you see? Who did you see?

Don't want to go back to that place. Don't want to go back to my soul. My spirit in a vacuum. Spirit in a vacuum. My spirit in a vacuum.

Mental Maelstrom, that is you. You've killed my inner sun. The sacrifices that i made, I want them all undone.

You put the engine back to sleep, When I thougth I'd found the key. Now that I am stranded here, You return to Misery.

How can I kill the alien mind, That tries to be me' I've seen the vacuums eye, And now i see the thing that I be.

Don't want to go back to that place. Don't want to go back to my soul.

Spirit in a vacuum. My spirit in a vacuum.
