Let me take you down without a sound

 Dead before you hit the ground

 Blood washes my hand can't understand

 Sterilizing my pain



 Washed away with crimson tide

 By my hand I keep testing time

 Quench the fire that drives my soul

 Soothing me as death takes hold



[lead: Hannemann]



 Peaceful and serene slowly bleeding

 Eyes once bright are now fading

 Pallid ashen face against my skin

 Staring blindly at some distant place



 Washed away by crimson tide

 By my hand I keep testing time

 Straight flesh lace adorns your neck

 Spilling your blood all over my flesh



 Quench the fire that drives my soul

 Soothing me as death takes hold

 Divine godsend enveloping me

 Spiritual ecstasy sets me free
