Disengage Songtext
von Mortanius

The sun is setting now
Sky burning red, a flame extinguished
The light recedes, night′s veil enshrouding
Slumber takes hold
I close my eyes and drift away

All alone in my head
Where I fear to tread
Pale reflections of my life viewed within a dream
Million faces unknown
In the crowd I'm alone
Don′t belong here, a stranger in the mirror

(Eyes deceive me)
Shrouded in a haze
(Reality)
Never seemed real to me
(Disconnect, my affect)
Near realization
(Existence in question)
Can't recognize myself


Disengage from this body trapped in a cage
From this face I dissociate, I dissipate
A fractured ego
Absentee, isn't this how it′s meant to be?
Isn′t this how it's always been?
An empty scene, and me
Just a shadow passing by

Moving away, getting further distant
Am I just an observer here? Can′t feel
(Senses are clouding, dreamlike surrounding)
(No contact is to be found)
On the outside looking in

Disengage from this body trapped in a cage
From this face I dissociate, I dissipate
A fractured ego
Absentee, isn't this how it′s meant to be?
Isn't this how it′s always been?
An empty scene, and me
Watching shadows passing by

As I rise from my sleep
Feelings I still keep
No escaping the stranger in the mirror


(Eyes deceive me)
Shrouded in a haze
(Reality)
Never seemed real to me
(Disconnect, my affect)
Near realization
(Existence in question)
Everything falling apart

Disengage from this body trapped in a cage
From this face I dissociate, I dissipate
A fractured ego
Absentee, isn't this how it's meant to be?
Isn′t this how it′s always been?
An empty scene, and me
Just a shadow

Now I'm disengaged from this body trapped in a cage (this body trapped in a-, trapped in a cage)
From this face I dissociate, I dissipate (this face I dissipate)
A fractured ego (a fractured ego)
Absentee, isn′t this how it's meant to be? (Absentee, is this how it is to be?)
Isn′t this how it's always been? (Always been)
An empty scene, and me (empty scene, passing by)
Watching shadows passing by
