Lyrics

Purgatory

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

In purgatory it’s colder

Than your every vice

Your every evil paralysed

There within the ice

And after it has gripped you

For a thousand years

You’ll get into heaven

Have no fear

In caves of ice naked

You will dwell

Each movement

An agony to tell

And after it has gripped you

For a thousand years

You’ll get into heaven

Have no fear

Your mind in this agony

Will be gripped

Till every vice

From your body is ripped

And after it has gripped you

For a thousand years

You’ll get into heaven

Have no fear

Be for ever grateful

In purgatory you dwell

For one day you’ll be released

In heaven you will dwell

And after it has gripped you

For a thousand years

You’ll get into heaven

Have no fear
