Deeds of a Dead Soul Lyrics
A mystery of the universe a tale of the dead
Far into the psyche and far until the end
The mind, it often wonders about the few and far between
But in these lines, I think you'll find that you will believe
Oh far beyond the violent skies, you can see a watchful eye
His presence always shifting like the empty hands of time
On broken wings, he tries to sing his hateful lullaby
Nobody is listening to this dull pathetic cry
His death is mourned by no one, he is the shadowed one
Now he plots from below these deeds of a dead soul
Whispers in a wind storm carry through the night
Helpless victims everywhere, all have felt his plight
The scars he's left are memorable, he waits until they heal
Then he comes back again, to seal the final deal
Oh far beyond the violent skies, you can see a watchful eye
His presence always shifting like the empty hands of time
On broken wings, he tries to sing his hateful lullaby
Nobody is listening to this dull pathetic cry
His death is mourned by no one, he is the shadowed one
Now he plots from below these deeds of a dead soul
Far into the psyche and far until the end
The mind, it often wonders about the few and far between
But in these lines, I think you'll find that you will believe
His presence always shifting like the empty hands of time
On broken wings, he tries to sing his hateful lullaby
Nobody is listening to this dull pathetic cry
Now he plots from below these deeds of a dead soul
Helpless victims everywhere, all have felt his plight
The scars he's left are memorable, he waits until they heal
Then he comes back again, to seal the final deal
Oh far beyond the violent skies, you can see a watchful eye
His presence always shifting like the empty hands of time
On broken wings, he tries to sing his hateful lullaby
Nobody is listening to this dull pathetic cry
Now he plots from below these deeds of a dead soul

The song delves into the supernatural realm, exploring the psyche of a tormented and vengeful spirit that seeks to inflict harm on the living. It paints a dark and haunting picture, emphasizing themes of loneliness, revenge, and the cyclical nature of malignancy. The figure referred to as the "shadowed one," was once living but is now deceased, with their death going unnoticed by the world. While its actions are fueled by hatred and a desire for revenge, it suggests that its cries go unheard and unnoticed by the living, with the phrase "nobody is listening to this dull pathetic cry" reflecting a sense of isolation and futility in the entity's efforts to provoke a response or recognition. Because its cries went unheard, it now seeks to torment and inflict harm on the living.
