To See What Lies Beyond Songtext
von Of Deities and Dust

Look into the soul mirror
Reflect upon thy youth, thy truth, thy terror
Guilt bearer, do you dare?
Look into the soul mirror
Reflect upon thy youth, thy truth, thy terror
Draw near, do not fear to see what lies beyond

Down, down, descend-pass thru the pit of despair
To the very heart of Hell... Hell! I
To tell of the terror of the dethroned emperor
Pray for all the souls that fell


Look into the soul mirror
Reflect upon thy youth, thy truth, thy terror
Guilt bearer, do you dare?
Look into the soul mirror
Reflect upon thy youth, thy truth, thy terror
Draw near, do not fear to see what lies beyond
To see what lies beyond our sight
To see what lies beyond-beyond all mortal might
To see what lies beyond our deepest fears
To see beyond our years, beyond the bitter tears

Death, death denied, drowning in the sea of torment
Frowning in the face of fear
Fear? But there′s nothing to fear, is there?
Nothing but death, life, and pain-O the pain

Mirror, mirror, tell me no lies
Take a look, look in mine eyes
In vision, the truth-silence my cries
Resist the persistence of doubt and disbelief
Take a look, take a look-look in mine eyes
Witness the dark within-the mirror of my soul

To see what lies beyond our sight
To see what lies beyond-beyond all mortal might
To see what lies beyond our darkest dreams
Beyond the silent screams-death is not what it seems

I see myself, a mournful man with soulful eyes
Rapt, entrapped in soulless lies
Pierce the veil, the dark disguise of sight


I speak the eldritch words and lock my gaze
Trace the path thru maddening maze
Make my way toward glorious rays of light

Into the looking-glass, I shall pass from this plane
There to remain, forever!

I speak the eldritch words and lock my gaze
Trace the path thru maddening maze
Make my way toward glorious rays of light
