Rituals contrived to ease the mind

Mysteries revealed, or are they lies?

The ultimate truth remains unknown until you die

Feeding the madness of uncertainty



Fearful of revenge

But sowing the violent seed

A lifetime of transgressions

Mentally tortured

Self-inflicted punishment

No judgement more severe



A twisted course bound by fate

Spiralling plunge, shrouded in fear

Is there a purpose or merely destiny?

Master or pawn of life's cruelties



Fearful of revenge

But sowing the violent seed

A lifetime of transgressions

Mentally tortured

Self-inflicted punishment

No judgement more severe



The curse of life, anticipating fate

Aware that one day death will come

Infernal shadows cast upon our earthly shells

Does life just cease or are our souls reborn?



Enigma of the absolute

Useless to repent

What is the cost of paradise

A living death of righteous lies

Shackled by a mindless faith

Lamenting in vain

Falling deep into distress

Life spent in sufferance



Shattered mind, corrupted flesh

Cowering in mortal fear

Clinging to a fading life

Futile prayer as the end draws near

Body now a withered frame

Fallen prey to time

Final thoughts are a regret

Dying without ever knowing life



In sufferance
