A furnace of thought Cloaked in bone and in skin A high priest consecrating Dying flesh All human beliefs Created, idealized All human lives Ending where they began The pain to overcome mortality Ends when man decides To overcome life with death Seeking salvation in fading away Gebrechlichkeit Verschleierung Irrsinn Entmenschlichung Sanity broken To find a relief Aside... Mortal lives Creating a blackness around the living Hands raised to the sky as A blood red sundown proclaims The end Of the world. All blackness of thought A constant battle Of sanity insanity Hope and nihilism. Demystifying immortality A dying kind feasting upon itself Demystifying the blackness A dying kind - blowing out each candle of free will.
