Purgatory

Nothing I hear, nothing I see, there's only darkness enlacing

Silence around, silence in me, don't feel no flame in me blazing

What happened last? What brought me here? Memories feel like dying embers

A last, loudish bang, a pained, scary scream, last things, I'll ever remember

From dust, we came, that's what they preach, and it's where we will return to

But what's beyond this lifeless flesh, beyond the years, we have been through?

Is it the end, will there be more, will there be an overall justice?

All of my fucking life, I just thought 'bout whatever my lust is

Have I been good, have I been bad? The holy principle

The flames of purgatory will tell

Hellfire, hellfire

Stairway to heaven or the highway down to Satan's door

I smell the burning out of hell

Forgive (will I know?)

In the end, I will believe (will I know?)

Will I ever be released? (Will I know?)

But I know I'm gonna bleed

'Til the end, I've got to pay for every deed

Pay for every deed

Never imagined dyin' so soon, that must be karma's selection

What could await me there but pain for my malefactions?

Don't pull me down, I'll show regret, I'll pay what's needful to settle

I'm beggin' on my bloody knees, don't send me down to the devil

Have I been good, have I been bad? The holy principle

The flames of purgatory will know

Hellfire, hellfire

Stairway to heaven or the highway down to Satan's door

Already feel that tortures glow

Forgive (will I know?)

In the end, I will believe (will I know?)

Will I ever be released? (Will I know?)

But I know I'm gonna bleed

All through, I've paid my dips

Non occides, non moechaberis

Non furtum facies, non occides

Never been good, ever been bad, my holy principle

The flames of purgatory, they yell

Hellfire, hellfire

Desire for heaven will stay a hopeless dream forevermore

I gotta burn in flames of hell

Forgive (will I know?)
