Here I stand, at the very edge of the void The summit, my aspirations in this world The abyss, my tomb. It's darkness, my final fanfare Gone is the weight, the soul-crumbling burden of life Dread... The bottomless maw awaits There's no hope where the sun cannot reach My soul, my body and my heart, are torn Even in death, to hopelessness I am sworn Lifelessness, your shackles are forever mine A warm welcome, to her and her loving kind I welcome thee death-mother, bringer of peace and harmony I rejoice as your fingernails tear at my skin My funeral, deserted and empty of all life As I'm falling down, towards the sharp and barren cliffs Seconds pass, passes on my way, descending down End is nigh, the fat lady singing, the final curtain call Sanctuary of blight, corruption and destruction Born to breathe, fumes of poison. Nothing, nothing... Tranquil is the moment I am in Affection is what I experience Entwined in this kinship with serenity in death Pious, yet forlorn my eyes are closing
