lyrics

look around here and feel this place for the very last time
the very last...time
feel this flesh with your lonely flesh for the very last time
today is the very last time...good-bye

I know it's time to leave, I know that I must go
just let me look around and see this place just one more time
I know that I must leave, I know I have to go
just let me look around and feel this place for the very last time

cleanse this soul, ease this mind, incinerate...just everything
aim these flames straight at me
through this smoke you'll see everything
see my face melt the final time
it's the very last time, the very last...time
see my lips part a final time
it's the very last time, today is the very last time...good-bye
the answer is clear

my arms and legs are bound, I'm pulled through glass and nails
deception seeps from me, the answer is clear
and as the thousands stare, I'm nailed upon the wall
this blood is freeing me, the answer is clear
the sky's so beautiful, so blue, so beautiful
so far from all of this, the curtains close
and I stare endlessly, so awed, so endlessly
emotions burn in me, the picture fades
I'm now so far away, these years have drifted by
and through the smoke and nails, the answer is clear
illusions fade away, and I'm here so alone
these flames are killing me, the answer is clear...is clear
