               Chorus
               Distarnish Priest
               I'm clean, washed in blood, sanctified inside out
               I'm dead to satan's grasp, justified by the cross.

               verse1
               Vertical convulsion, striven force, grasp desired service
               Hideous onslaught attacts the mind.
               Vicious intent prevails.

               bridge
               Serve your God
               Your time will come.

               verse2
               Beware, of trap of stardom faith
               Seek quidance for your life.
               Do not adom the priestly robes
               Covering filthy manifistation.

               verse3
               Guard your heart, bow before God

               Radical conversion zeal of love
               Put faith into actions.

               interlude
               I'm lost, inside your ways
               I've found, a new escape this life
               No fantasy new ways, reality
               Allways growing, never fading
               Hope increasing, peace astounding
               Allways knowing, never falling
               My salvation, making me.

               verse4
               Wretched man, that I am, chronicle thought diseases
               My priestly robes must be clean, penitence of ministers

	     verse5
               Bow at the altar of sacrifice, living flesh submission
               Eucharist served to others passed, priest of lifes maturity
