A ringing bell muffled by earth
A sign of life from the catacombs
Enshrined in charcoal 
Encrusted with salt
Shrinking skin 
Clings to the bones 

Chanting silent sutras
Desert lips and dedication 
The bitter tea and stinging salves
Made a lacquer in his veins

No vile worms or carrion 
Shall feast upon his sanctity

Immaculate end
A morbid immortality

Eternal lotus
Blooms in blackness
Forever in repose
Eternal lotus
Blooms in blackness
Uncorruptible

Alone he bears the pains
Of transformation
A beacon of suffering 
To leave behind a legacy 
This monument

A skeletal offering 
Agony beyond endurance 
Every nerve aflame 
No light, no sound
Just his hummingbird heart

Blinded, his gaze draws ever inwards
Through the darkness, he sees all
Infinite forms, unfolding panoramas
The mind's eye opening 

Casting off the fleeting form
Remake the self to match a will of steel 

In passionate purpose
A lifetime's sacrifice 
To contemplate the divine 
 
Cycles of death and rebirth
Made manifest in his flesh

In passionate purpose
A lifetime's sacrifice 
To contemplate the divine 

Embodiment of mortality
Preservation of the earthly husk
As the spirit journeys on

Beyond the petty games of mortal things 
The self-inflicted wounds
The hurts and jealousies
 
Chanting silent sutras
Desert lips and dedication 
The bitter tea and stinging salves
Made a lacquer in his veins

No vile worms or carrion 
Shall feast upon his sanctity

Immaculate end
A morbid immortality    
Ascetic perfection  
A gift for the worthy
  
Eternal lotus
Blooms in blackness
Forever in repose
Eternal lotus
Blooms in blackness
Uncorruptible

Eternal lotus
Blooms in blackness
Forever in repose
Eternal lotus
Blooms in blackness
