Infernal Cathedral - This Place, This Prison

from this place i know not where i am
this solitary realm removed from the terrestrial
my new home, this agony
only the remnants of me remain
for i was long ago beaten into dust
by the hammers of circumstances and chance

beyond this place of wrath and tears
looms the horror of the shade
and i cannot let out a sound to tell
where i am, in this forest, frozen
a black moon rises past an ashen sun
i know not what to do to break this solitude

i am, will be, forever have been
locked up as a prisoner here
beware, all ye who look for me
far too many have gotten lost in
these woods where i dwell
this place, this prison, this lonely cell
this torment, this suffering, this living hell

is self-imposed as some will say
i locked myself here without the key
but in love's hate i will always be
met, by this unending agony
it's as if the blind see more than me
for from this tower's barred windows
it's as if the rivers streams were froze
never to be melted by the sun
or ever to be seen by someone
this place, this prison, this lonely cell
this torment, this suffering, this living hell

its as if the blind see more than me
its as if the blind see more than me
this place, this prison
this place, this prison
