Unrestrained craving for obvious failure
A welcome thorn in the side
Suffering as chosen fate

A permanent companion to be
The inevitable decline of self
A wonderful scourge of despair


This agonising helplessness
Edifying for eternity

Prometheus - lead my way
For agony it may be


The absolute need for grief
As driving force within
Destructive striving for more

Self-destruction divine
Total blindness for redemption
That lies before thee


This agonising helplessness
Edifying for eternity

Prometheus - lead my way
For agony it may be


Pain stands before insight
Obsessions darken the mind
Deliverance is a t^^&$#* gift

But its splendour is release
The flesh is a slave to the mind
Boundaries overthrown

The bonds of suppression
Must fall once and for all


This agonising helplessness
Shaming for eternity
Prometheus - away from me

For agony it won't be
