Carceri - The Cleansing

I begin the cleansing
To filter my putrid mind
No longer can I stand
The creeping decay

Lunacy gropes within

Hacking at my flesh
The metallic taste of blood
To regain that which is lost
Purification through .... PAIN

I slowly turn the blade
Push through against the angst
Inflicting mortal wounds
Purification through .... PAIN

I shall pay

For sins against the inner order
That I committed - So I betrayed The fire within myself
No remorse for the weak

Release me
Will not give in
Strenght regained
Scarred and battered
The will remains
Breathing stops
Heartfailure
Fading light
I will not mourn

I begin the cleansing
To filter my putrid mind
No longer can I stand
The creeping decay
My vision is cleared
Completely renewed
I again see the truth
While hacking away
