1349 - Stand Tall In Fire

I am shedding skin from a vision obscured
I am shedding skin unfolding from the veil

I am shedding skin from perspective blurred
I will shed this skin
Mind burning like a million suns

Come forth from fire
Standing naked to the flame
In cold triumphant silence
Penetrating deeper into darkness

Each stitch sown, a bridge to planes, beyond the scope of men
Edging ever nearer, to the gateways of transformation
Living each moment, departing from the flesh beneath
Enraptured in timeless metamorphic moments

Re-skinned by chaos inner worlds returning
I will shed this skin
Re-skinned by fire soul shards burning
I will shed this skin

Shifting - moving
Come forth from fire
Crawling through wombs upon black wombs
Standing naked to the flame
Passing inner shields
Stand tall in fire!

Shedding skin
Lives carved from voids
Time parting like cosmic tides
Peeling away each layer of my soul
A lifeless mask of ash remains

Releasing spirit, from shriveling flesh
Releasing soul, from the clutches of fate
Released through spirit, from astral flesh
Released through soul, from beaten path
Released through spirit, the ritual death
Released through soul, the cage of flesh

Come forth from fire standing naked to the flame
Being human being flesh being skin
Stand tall in fire flayed naked by the flame
Being nothing being all I am not flesh
No more of this flesh
