Transcendent Martyrdom Lyrics

Death and suffering of a martyr
Defended beyond moral truth
Abused, sacrificial lamb
Scorched through the spleen
Ribs breaking, heart pounding
Immoral suffering

Scapegoat, sacrificial lamb
Flayed one flesh
Bringing endless agony
Essential suffering
For the beauty and mystery of transcendent pain

Eyes open, peel the skin
Strapped into a rotating rack and flayed
Echoes gloat over the terrible fate imposed
What is it to be achieved?

Martyrdom brings possibilities
Of seeing into the afterlife
Creating martyrs through systematic perversion
To learn what lies after death

Fading
Transcending
Martyrdom achieved
Learning what lies after death

Transcending
Martyrdom achieved
