My Flesh and the Sacred River

My journey to the Holy Land has just begun

I prepare myself to die away

My spirit is ready, my flesh comes undone

I think of you and sign my name

All your tears...

Candles and a river of blood

Forgotten memories of a young man with too much heart

But still I was always trying

Disturbing God I asked, “May I come in?”

Hoping for some other way to die

It's my will, I tell Him, my desire

I wish to step away from here

Time to go into Necropolis

My frail soul rises from the grave

I know some things are real

But others you cannot explain

What does it mean? My lips are sealed

When you're gone – you’ve won! The clock ticks away

Now deep oceans and all the rivers

Are flowing through my head

Am I so phenomenal?

Tell me what's going on

Time to go into Necropolis

My frail soul rises from the grave
