Safely locked in a cell

I'm sleepless in my bed

A prisoner for ages

Time is gnawing through my head

I kept the secret well

That burns me from the inside

I fell a darkness grow

That swallows every light

I bow my head

I clasp my hands

For a very last prayer

Forgive my sins

Your grace begins

Where men turn away

One night of desperate hours

Starlight fading in the light of dawn

No might on earth left to save me

When the devil writes my name

In a circle of flames

I don't think they'll miss me

When I'm not seen anymore

Much too late I start to feel

Things I've never felt before

Sympathy and regret

Only words until this day

Who can teach me how to pray

I bow my head

I clasp my hands

For a very last prayer

Forgive my sins

Your grace begins

Where men turn away

One night of desperate hours

Starlight fading in the light of dawn

No might on earth left to save me

When the devil writes my name

In a circle of flames
