4. Phantasm Of Lost Existence

In a long wrathless reverie
Spectacular displays of human suffering
Wrapped in endless cycles
Understanding life and death
To suffer all its torments
For a few moments of glory

Eternal fire and torment
Everlasting torment
Eternal fire and torment
Everlasting torment
Until time is no more

I felt life burning
Through the coldness of myself
Invading every particle of me
I felt pain in my heart
I was too miserable
To take much consolation from feeling good

Eternal fire and torment
Everlasting torment
Eternal fire and torment
Everlasting torment
Until time is no more

I felt that profound release
Of the utterly grief-stricken
I was perishing from exhaustion
I was worn and miserable
Like mortals who tumble through life
From cradle to grave in oblivious slumber

Eternal fire and torment
Everlasting torment
Eternal fire and torment
Everlasting torment
Until time is no more
