Beyond the Realms of Death

He'd had enough, he couldn't take anymore
 
 He found a place in his mind, and slammed the door
 No matter how they tried, they couldn't understand
 They washed and dressed him, fed him by hand
 Yeah! I've left the world behind
 I am safe there, in my mind
 I'm free to speak with my own kind
 This is my life, this is my life
 I'll decide, not you
 ♪
 Withdrawn, he'd sit there staring into space
 No sign of life would flicker on his face
 Until one day he smiled, it seemed as though with pride
 The wind kissed him goodbye and then he died
 Yeah! I've left the world behind
 I am safe there, in my mind
 Free to speak with my own kind
 This is my life, this is my life
 I'll decide, not you
 Keep the world with all its sin
 It's not fit for living in
 Yeah! I will start again
 It can take forever and ever and ever and ever
 But I shall win
 ♪
 How many like him are there still
 Who to us all seem to have lost the will?
 They lie in thousands, blank and lost
 Is knowledge worth this bitter cost?
 Yeah! I've left the world behind
 I am safe there, in my mind
 Free to speak with my own kind
 This is my life, this is my life
 I'll decide, not you
 Keep the world with all its sin
 It's not fit for living in
 Beyond the realms of death
