Ok, here's the updated lyrics to "Purgatory", while you're waiting for the updated version of it. :-D

On the floor
Too scared to let go
But not strong enough to keep hold
I know that this is killing me
But the price for saving myself
Is it worth your demise?
(in nomine patris et filiis et spiritus sancti amen)
Trying to find where selfishness and self-respect divide
(Forgive me father, for I have sinned. I hurt myself again.)

There's a temporary heaven
If I want it
But next week it will be gone
So 7 days of satisfaction
For 7 days of sin
It would be so much easier
If you could just understand

I know you love me
(I know you love me)
And I hope you know I tried
(I hope you know I tried)
But if you can't see the knife you're twisting in me
How could you ever expect this to end?
I never left you
You left me
Every time you chose her
(Excuses so convenient)
You broke me
(You broke me)

Here's a toast to vulnerability
Cheers for abused trust
You could say love is all-consuming
And it just consumed me
The fire that consumes me

(You�ve got your own blessed sense of hubris. I will never understand some people�s capacity to not empathize with pain.)
