The Ascension

One thing they never told me
How to reach unending faith
How to come closer to my savior!
My day and night my life and death
I try my best following his guidance
But my perception doesn’t fit
Your words were written down by humans
And we all know they tend to fail
My ultimate goal is the ascension!
I want to be part of the spirit
Oh God, release me from this hollow!
Let me be part of your kingdom!
Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you
Cleanse your hands, you sinners: And purify your hearts, you double minded
Thy name echos in my mind
My feet stumble unholy ground
I shall eat the weed on plain fields
Self-punishment will lead me through
Your words were written by your servants
They’re not as holy as you can be
Wrong tongues and fingers misinterpreted
Suicide can not be a sin
Do not be a fool. Why die before your time?
Who are you to claim God's words?
So it is time to join my lord
Prepared all night for this task
I’ll burn myself till nothing's left
The fastest way to ascend
A big cross does mark the place
Where I’ll carry out my sacrifice
To the cross I will now tie
Standing right on the pyre!
A match will enlighten my last steps
Right to the feet of you, my lord
I toss it down, I smell the smoke
The fire starts to light up
I feel the heat on my bare feet
The pyre is starting to burn now
The heat gets more and more intense
Sweat is running down my face
The flames begin to devour me
I lift my eyes right to the sky
Here I come for you, my lord
Come and see my sacrifice!
The pain is getting unbearable!
I scream, I cry, I laugh, I smile!
A few more minutes for me to wait!
Till I can rise up to the sky!
Here I come for you, my lord
Here I come for you, my lord!
Here I come for you, my lord
Here I come for you, my lord!
