Lyrics for Cleanse The Soul

Body that rests before me With every dying breath Spellbound and gagged I commence your flesh to dirt Body that lay before me In everlasting death Entombed in an abscess To rot and lie stinking in the Earth Empty altar awaits its victim, stained glass windows black Candles burn the midnight oil, incense fills the night Observing trance awaking state, lying still unknowing Reciting the passages of time, prepare for the impaling Death's an art, flesh and earth never part, a power of the mind Death shines on the air of silence, a ritual of endless time Purged of your dead body, sacrificed of your life Unearthly ritual sealed in fire, enter the kingdom of desire
