Standing at death's door Gazing at my destiny Moments of peccable life Flash before my eyes Time comes to a halt The clock hands melt Into the dark shadows Of infinite solitude Where spirits chant in tongues Oh, eventual affright Religions defiled Temple of bones Propitious death Oh, pristine persistent Almighty passing Oh, majestic Finis Entomb me now Let the blaze transpiercing this clay die Let the circle of eternal life die Open the gates of your realm Fly me on thewings of decay To the everlasting The order of the propitious death Entomb me now Shall my ashes arise? And return to thou Oh, majestic Finis Entomb me now Lightning shall complete my rite Delight and misery I bury them equally From the sacred pyre My ashes arise Victors of death Temple of bones Noble end Victors of end Propitious death
