In a chasm of darkness
Enter the grave and consume
My flesh upon the temple mount
As the blood sacrifice left to die
In light of a cherub blazed night.
Falling into the gleaming pit
She wanders through the dark
As a child who lost her way
On an isolated path
Into the eternal flame
Or frozen ice bath.
His eyes born in the depths of agony
As she transforms into the widows silhouette amongst the stars.
In the end it was her wish
To fall into the void
And eternally sleep like a dog.
