Shrine of Life

Jean Francois Dagenais, Maurizio Iacono

Marching corpse to rise
I must fulfill my new destiny
Crawl-walking from my suicide
As I penetrate the exit of my home
My mother had a nervous breakdown and fell into a coma
Outside my domain
I discover, that my dreaming abilities were my un-dead powers
Casting a spell of no return, at the forgotten Isle
Where lies the forbidden shrine
Out of my tornado field near the sacred shrine
I climb the steps of knowledge
Each step inflicts me terrible pain
Decomposition of my soul as my inner organs rot away
Flesh falling part by part, dematerialization
In front of the pedestal
I open the golden book and some of my fingers fall off
A bright radiance illuminated from the book
This gleam dissolves my eyes
The pus flows on my cheeks

At this moment a voice says, "what are thine purpose?"
As I answer one of my arms breaks into pieces
"I am here, I want to repent myself, from my will of death"
"Art thou sure?"
Yes! Then read aloud what is written
I can't, my eyes
I must concentrate
I see the chant of life, the mantra to reborn

Now I can hear thousands of lamenting Damians around the sacred shrine
Waiting for my soul to fall, my body cracks in two
I keep my faith 'til the end of the beginning
As my torso of vomiting worms dies
My brain explodes
My body is thrown in
I'm alive
Free to reborn!
