Entrance by Half Empty Spirals catch me with red hands Drop demonic death demands Falling closer to the center Gone forever before I entered Falling nearer, nearer still Broken back, broke windowsills No sight outside because of this No sounds except my demon's hiss No touch other than serpents tongue No breath is left within my lungs No way out, no way to find The angels that I left inside Of my house of rock and stone Forced myself to be alone Alone I wait, alone I cry Alone I wait and wait to die Alone I find the path not taken Alone I find myself mistaken Alone I wander through these halls Alone I become aware of my fall Falling closer to the center Gone forever before I entered Drifting farther from the entrance Pray to God, pray for repentance Pray the Lord my soul to take Pray to God absolve mistakes Pray for life and pray for love Pray for mercy from above Realize my prayers unanswered Misunderstood my angel dancers Pointing are they at my blunders Laughing at decaying wonders Pointing are they with their grins Laughing at my mortal sins Pointing still, they make me cry Laughing at my wish to die These angels point at my appointment Laughing with mirth and disappointment But all is fine and all is well Angels don't exist in hell Make them fall away from center Make them gone before they've entered Make them drop the bread of life Slit them open; melt the knife Stop me from falling in the center With someone's grace, please let me enter |
