Blood Red Throne

Ten Steps Of Purgatory
A gateway before menothing more than a simple door I walk towards it, shivering As I reach the threshold I hesitate Aware of the pitch black darkness Ready to take hold of my soul once I'm inside One step forward and my life is irrevocably lost Thought this is no time for second thoughts, It is impossible not to be affected By the dismal and uncanny presence of doom; The hands of hell call out for me The abyss is already glaring in my eyes Now, in this very moment My left leg has crossed the line The first step and my mind is absorbed Disembodied from the spirit and soul I do not know this place I'm at, Though it feels familiar Suddenly it all becomes very clear and silent And the silence is piercing Whatever's left of mean oxymoron in limbo? How peculiar...I cannot stay here for too long As it's the only place I'm meant to be My fate is to finish the ten steps of purgatory Someone is drawing an invisible circle and Forces me to count it, nine times Is this hell? SongtexteI ask, but no answer Am I being judged by actions I couldn't control Suffering sins and crimes I did not commit Just because I got drawn towards the darkness Why do you claim that there are nines steps, When in fact it's ten Aus Songtexte Mania
