In solitude I stand Awaiting a manifestation A sign to cross the threshold of life A spirit guides my way Unmasked death speaks to me His venomous tongue revealing truths Reality stabs it's jagged blade Through my ancient heart The last trace of innocence Has been stripped away Only burning hatred remains A shadowed aura of my mortal life When all that is lies Has been burned to the ground A purity unbound remains To cross the threshold To commit the soul to darkness To cross the threshold To commit the soul to darkness
