On the back of a Nightmare I ride! Dark visions from within Brought into this world by the power of will Heed my will With the aid of Satanic inspiration My Introspection leads me on Brings me to the gates Gates of Gnosis The cloak of night she melts away time Through churning darkness onward I ride These shadows captivate the flame in my mind Into infinity Face like a phantom absorbed in my reverie Cold winds in my face conjure forth this memory Within it I see Gates of Gnosis This cold This agony Only brings me closer to my dream Torment of this frigid journey breeds this somber heresy To live is to suffer...and yet I choose to live Sacrifice light Sacrifice sanity Onward to truth I can see Gates of Gnosis
