Libitina – Samskara lyrics

Immolation faced, my choice made
The furnace doused
The embers raked
I won't follow you to the pyre
Your love's death has been my waking
Pulled from the fire
Saved from the flame
Now I can live my life again

The heat has licked
At my body for long enough
It's time for other tongues...
I am pure
Samskara!
The fire has eaten
At my soul for long enough
It's time for other mouths...
I am pure
Samskara!

Salvation taken
My hopes saved
Stifled inhalation
Heat close
I'm tired holding the torch for you
The fuel of love is exhausted
Pulled from the fire
Saved from the flame
Now I can live my life again

The heat has licked
At my body for long enough
It's time for other tongues...
I am pure
Samskara!
The fire has eaten
At my soul for long enough
It's time for other mouths...
I am pure
Samskara!

The fire has gnawed
At my bones for long enough
It's time for softer lips...
I am pure
Samskara!
And the mountain shakes-
This time I see another way...
I am pure
Samskara!
I am pure
It's time to fall
