1. SPIRIT DEPARTURE

I feel my body weakening
Saps of life lose their warmth
I draw my final breath
I close my eyes and release the burden

My spirit has been lifted
Lifted from my cold, dead body
Never to return again
Only to face my fate

Heaven nor hell awaits me
Only this dark abyss
Wrapped in a cloak of emptiness
To be free of my sinful ways

Thy rest is nigh
Mortal so fragile
Thy heavy bones
Left behind

No judgement cast upon me
Embraced by the angel of nothingness
Silence is the music of life
Its melodies, the seeds of my rest
