We will move on Our bodies remain Freedom Free from the pain Free from the wrath of this world Angry in life, We seek bliss in death Predestination Doomed from the start Burn the sacred oil Light the ritual candle Speak in ancient tongues Close my eyes and slip away

Damp cold and dark Lowered down by my misery Crippled by this hell Dreams of sunlight my only serenity Deafening Silence numbs my body I cry out Desperate screams echo off the walls of this tomb My scathed hands carve These anguished cries A sense of tranquility Impossible in this hallowed state I've taken my path to salvation Covered in hatred and pain I have withered away I had no chance to survive Drenched in the blood of my past life I try and lift the coffin lid The veins of my suffering tie it down With my final breath I pass

Repugnant foulness rises from below On a cloud I sit and weep Why have these wings, if I cannot fly? Why can't I cease to be? I reject my heavenly existence A scourge among the tranquil I burn the sacred kingdom and ride the smoke down Where can I go When I cannot die condemned to be immortal Lucifer's gates are open to me The fire dries my tears The winds of hell cannot burn my halo My wings still at my back The crust of the earth is not Deep enough to bury the sorrow I feel Trapped in this wasteland of white My soul is cold and I wish to burn I vow a return to destroy all life on Earth And the paradise that is waiting for you when you die
5.
I am Suffering Burning In the Heat of the sun Under Fickle tree I am nothing And I will never be Misanthropy Possess my body I know I’m alone Death is my one true friend now, Grant me peace and a throne I banish the light of existence The cold ground caresses me The fire of this hate has burned Anything I’ve ever felt Now I see The loneliness of existence Revealed before me On to the next realm I pass away leaving only an empty shell I could have lived one thousand times And never felt A single thing for those around me When will you seem to understand Life is meaningless Every candle is lit to be put out Now I’ve melted away
