Stand Tall in Fire - 1349

I am shedding skin

From a vision obscured

I am shedding skin

Unfolding from the veil

I am shedding skin

From perspective blurred

I will shed this skin

Mind burning like a million suns

Come forth from fire

Standing naked to the flame

In cold triumphant silence

Penetrating deeper into darkness

Each stitch down, a bridge to planes, beyond the scope of men

Edging ever nearer to the gateways of transformation

Living each moment, departing from the flesh beneath

Enraptured in timeless metamorphic moments

Re-skinned by chaos

Inner worlds returning

I will shed this skin

Re-skinned by fire

Soul shards burning

I will shed this skin

Shifting, moving

Come forth from fire

Shifting, moving

Crawling through wombs upon black wombs

Shifting, moving

Standing naked to the flame

Shifting, moving

Passing inner shields

Stand tall in fire

(Stand tall in fire)

Shedding skin

Hides carved from voids

Shedding skin

Time parting like cosmic tides

Shedding skin

Peeling away each layer of my soul

Shedding skin

A lifeless mask of ash remains

Shifting, moving

Come forth from fire

Shifting, moving

Crawling through wombs upon black wombs

Shifting, moving

Standing naked to the flame

Shifting, moving

Passing inner shields

Stand tall in fire

Releasing spirit from shriveling flesh

Releasing soul from the clutches of fate

Released through spirit from astral flesh

Released through soul from beaten path

Released through spirit, the ritual death

Released through soul, the cage of flesh

Come forth from fire, standing naked to the flame

Being human, being flesh, being skin

Stand tall in fire, flayed naked by the flame

Being nothing, being all, I am not flesh

No more of this flesh

Shifting, moving

Come forth from fire

Shifting, moving

Crawling through wombs upon black wombs

Shifting, moving

Standing naked to the flame

Shifting, moving

Stand tall in fire

Stand tall in fire

Stand tall in fire
