As I'm laying here lord looking death in the face My heart beats weak and my breath comes frail The crying all around me in a piercing white noise My eyes roll back and my skin turns pale I'm hoping that my final words find your ears And I'm hoping that these final moments end in grace The blood in my mouth starts to pool in my lungs And it won't be long before I'm at your gates Saying it in praying tones and hoping that it's working As the river flows calm and I'm hearing it call me The burning in my guts it's building and fierce When my children pay in blood, pain, hatred and tears The flies on my tongue hear my final words whispered As what's left of me to rot is thrown into the river Brother guide me on my descent to the water My vision starts to blur and I can press on no longer They're wailing in the woods and I'm growing sick and weak The spirits of the fallen beckon me into sleep Drape me in my robe and let my children watch Cover my wounds with a sacred cloth Praying death would claim me in this frail form To wait in peace and glory until I am reborn I will be, released A porous corpses flowing down a lesser river Jordan There's a goat on the shore and its pointing me forward I can feel the waves rocking and the flames snuff out As my burnt singed human form is pulled sky-bound The chanting in the trees crescendos I rise To a deafening scream I can see the red eyes Of the afterlife and strong force pulls me back And new breath fills my lungs once again Revival but I'm bound here in this rotting flesh Damned to live my life as I died and do it again Until the bell is rung I'm tied to this plain And death will always skip me until my task is complete Come hell or high water I will steer my flock To the glory of the lord and from up above Cleanse his crumbling planet of an infection of sinners Once the earth is pure, shine upon me all his love Brother guide me on my descent to the water My vision starts to blur and I can press on no longer They're wailing in the woods and I'm growing sick and weak The spirits of the fallen beckon me into sleep Living here forever trying to make the world clean I can the hear the tortured souls stuck in between I'm a swift sword, lord held, crusading rotting monster And before I can rest I'll do the bidding of my father Drape me in my robe and let my children watch Cover my wounds with a sacred cloth Praying death would claim me in this frail form To wait in peace and glory until I am reborn I need, released Brother guide me on my descent to the water My vision starts to blur and I can press on no longer They're wailing in the woods and I'm growing sick and weak The spirits of the fallen beckon me into sleep Living here forever trying to make the world clean I can the hear the tortured souls stuck in between I'm a swift sword, lord held, crusading rotting monster And before I can rest I'll do the bidding of my father In these holy final moments you must repent Dragged before the angels will you sin again? A day of righteous judgment and of fire and of saving If your soul is pure then you shouldn't fear my coming Drape me in my robe and let my children watch Cover my wounds with a sacred cloth Praying death would claim me in this frail form To wait in peace and glory until I am reborn I will be, released
