Prisoner In Death\'s Jaws

 

Darkness is salvation, sweeping through within

You see your own cremation inside this world of sin
Deliverance is close at hand
Watching yourself fall apart you stand amidst the flames
Like a dagger through your heart you feel all the pain
A sea of red treacle drifts peacefully by

With the blood your pain seeps through, almost like a sieve
Now feelings do not flow in you, no longer do you live
The curse of life has now been lifted
Every drop has now been spilt, no more is left inside
No anger, hatred, pain or guilt, with you that night it died
There is nothing left to pull you down

Yet, I felt faithless, lost inside as darkness swept through me
I laid there alone and died, I was no longer free
Steadily, the shadows engulf you
Here in the darkness I now rest, too shallow to be saved
For all eternity suppressed, confined within my grave
Soon, you will consume all that is left

No room to move in this small box, no feeling in my limbs
Held inside with chains and locks, beneath these waves of sin
Life and death have the same origin
I solemnly accept the truth and stare at these four walls
There is no more that I can do held prisoner in Death\'s jaws
Without death, life cannot exist
