Let my mind be raptured So let them burn the pyre Hear the entrancing chants Behold the flames grow high As the drum makes path My soul reaches the dark light May the flames build a Temple in me Forever! I invoke thee, elusive power unknown Open the gates to me, secret gnosis below May the flames build a temple in me Forever! Through the scorching blazes My mind shall see What path lies beneath! Burn now Burn it down Tear the funeral gown Burn now Burn it higher So let them burn the pyre! Burn the pyre! Burn it now! I raise my chalice to Thee! Give thy death's embrace, and honor me Bring the light of thy slumber and rebirth! The grandeur and the splendor of all consuming burst! Of all consuming burst! Beyond this world Beyond the stars My essence shall be one with the gray skies The path will open as I die As the flames shine bright The ardent marks The offering Ultimate enlightenment, a soul to be free The path will open as I die As the flames shine bright I'm burning Mind flowing Unleash the fire I'm burning Mind flowing So burn the Pyre I'm burning (I'm burning) Mind flowing (mind flowing) Unleash the fire I'm burning (I'm burning) Mind flowing (mind flowing) So burn the pyre Through the darkest shades of time The essence of knowledge flies Devour the flesh away! Burn now Burn it down Tear the funeral gown Burn now Burn it higher So let them burn the pyre! Burn the pyre
