Cathedral Of Doom

Up there the gates are now forever closed
Only downward you may go

Abandon all hope as you enter this cathedral of doom
As hooks of the pious mark you damned flesh
Humid walls echo your prayers for redemption

Longing to undo your life's in vain
In gloom and grave disdain, you are here to stay

Blood curdling in everlasting acts of confession
Every aspect of your being scrutinized, resolved
Twisted figures abstract and cold condemn you

Martyrdom, sacrifice
Thoughts that stain the mind
All alone, lunacy
The bane of the virgin kind

The cadre of faceless automatons annulling life
From resurrection to oblivion forevermore
Down below worn chains clattering without end

Only through devouring flames the innocent will be absolved
