Unforgivable sin blackens my bones
Sealing my fate like a thousand stones
Thrown on coffin wrapped in barbed wire
Tinted dark, hateful and dire

Sharp shivers run down my spine like knives,
Ruined lives and broken hearts,
No star lights the plain I walk,
I don't have the right to talk

The cold comes from inside my bones,
The shattered soul of this rotten corpse,
Dry veins filled with regret, contempt, and remorse,
They will crack by the time the bell tolls

I was the one who sealed the grave,
I have sealed my own damned fate,
I am the sole cause of the grief,
May I never ever find peace

I hurt the one I loved like I loved noone before,
Betrayed her in a way squalid to the core,
If there's a God it will send death,
Marking the time of my last breath

I can't live on like I did before
I don't want to - not anymore
I want to end it, kill the sinner:
I want to kill the man in the mirror

Having destroyed my reason to live,
I am just a dead man walking,
My last wish is to see myself dying
Over and over again
