Pain…It burns my soul,
Here I am not be whole,
Sufferage is mine,
Damned for all time.

Chains of fire,
Atop the pyre,
Hold me well,
In this hell.

I burn and burn,
I want to turn
Away from here,
I want to disappear.

I am a lost ghost,
Trapped by the host,
Locked in this misery,
Mine for infinity.

Tears fall from angel eyes,
No ears for my dull cries,
I suffer but why?
Cursed to die.

My last overture,
Poison without cure,
Horror without release,
War and no peace.

Ah but I betrayed you,
Kissed you adieu,
Nailed you to a cross,
The world’s great loss.

A crown of thorns,
Devil with horns,
Paradise and glee,
Pain and misery.

A messiah in light,
A traitor in the night,
Son and father together,
While I suffer forever.

Forgiveness not mine,
No light divine,
Only wrath of heaven,
From the holy brethren.

Damned for all time,
Punished for the crime,
Loved by son of one,
Hated by everyone.

A kiss on a cheek,
An act so meek,
Fare thee well,
I return to hell…

powerfully said!

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.
