Prison of Mortality
Eternus Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can't forget the chains
In mortal life
The pressures of life
Leading to the dark

What comes after the death?
Nobody knows
Many questions surround
We can only wait to know

Prison of mortality
The death owns the key
For the next road
Of the soul

We have many possibilities
To succeed in earth
But the time always will come
And let our soul fly

What comes after the death?
Nobody knows
Many questions surround
We can only wait to know

Prison of mortality
The death owns the key
For the next road
Of the soul

Prison of mortality
The death owns the key




For the next road
Of the soul

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Eternus's song "Prison of Mortality" explores the concept of mortality and what happens after death. The chains in mortal life refer to the struggles and pressures of life that weigh us down and lead us to a dark place. Death is seen as a prison that owns the key to the next road of the soul, making it feel like a continuation of the mortal life.


The lyrics also touch on the uncertainty surrounding what comes after death, with many questions left unanswered. Despite the many opportunities for success in life, death is inevitable and it is only a matter of time before our soul transcends to the next realm. The repetition of the lines referring to the prison of mortality and the ownership of the key by death emphasize the finality and inevitability of death.


Overall, Eternus's "Prison of Mortality" serves as a reminder to live life to the fullest while we still can, and to embrace the uncertainty of what lies beyond death.
