| [00:48.76] |
An Archangel in bondage |
| [00:51.01] |
Bediademed, souled |
| [00:52.39] |
With a murder of ravens |
| [00:54.70] |
But no less Astarte to behold |
| [00:57.20] |
Abandoned by Heaven |
| [00:58.51] |
To the dead, dark and past |
| [01:01.32] |
Cast Her dispersions |
| [01:02.95] |
On life's brittle glass |
| [01:05.70] |
And though Her eyes still held fire |
| [01:08.27] |
As stonewalls caged the beast |
| [01:10.95] |
'Gainst the lassitudes of Death |
| [01:13.02] |
She fought but fell to greet |
| [01:14.95] |
And midst lies in collusion |
| [01:17.27] |
|
| [01:19.33] |
She was martyred to teach |
| [01:23.95] |
That "Divinity and Lust |
| [01:26.82] |
Are forever forbidden to meet" |
| [01:30.13] |
|
| [01:31.82] |
But I swore that they would |
| [01:33.69] |
Before the veil could part our embrace |
| [01:35.69] |
Twixt Her cold, silent hips I kissed |
| [01:39.68] |
|
| [01:47.08] |
And promised Christendom in flames |
| [01:49.52] |
Gravid with madness |
| [01:51.09] |
Like a feculent dirge |
| [01:52.90] |
That obsesses the heart |
| [01:55.34] |
I am covened by words |
| [01:58.21] |
To avenge Her |
| [01:59.46] |
Ebon splendour |
| [02:00.34] |
And surrender |
| [02:01.21] |
My soul to the dead to achieve |
| [02:05.15] |
Prophecies of libidinous scourge |
| [02:07.96] |
|
| [02:08.90] |
Horripilation braying o'er carious herds |
| [02:11.46] |
Vexing nightmares |
| [02:12.21] |
And their weak prayers |
| [02:13.84] |
To a no one there |
| [02:17.27] |
To hinder Her decree |
| [02:20.27] |
To weed the world of their disease |
| [02:22.59] |
As shadows unblind mine eyes to see |
| [02:24.34] |
The meat that is their congregation |
| [02:27.59] |
|
| [02:31.83] |
How they plead to the skies |
| [02:34.77] |
But this is mere foreplay to war |
| [02:37.52] |
Scar-riddled saffron eves bleed like the conjugal |
| [02:39.83] |
Vestal daughters giving throat to the priest |
| [02:43.89] |
A psychophant, the despoiler of faith |
| [02:46.39] |
Now His skinless crucifixion feeds a winged diocese |
| [02:49.33] |
For Her interred |
| [02:50.71] |
I tore a battle banner from His hide |
| [02:53.64] |
Splashed in red goetia |
| [02:56.02] |
Hues of Hell and deicide |
| [02:57.95] |
So came the night |
| [02:59.58] |
Its obsidian light |
| [03:01.77] |
Is a master whom disasters |
| [03:04.14] |
Suck upon like concubines |
| [03:06.52] |
And under black skirts |
| [03:08.08] |
That whisper of delight |
| [03:09.64] |
Darkseeds near fruition |
| [03:10.77] |
Darked deeds to marry mine |
| [03:12.27] |
"In Death's bed I have lain |
| [03:14.08] |
Paying lip-service to shame |
| [03:15.21] |
But for dreaming of thee I regain |
| [03:17.58] |
A reason to seek life again" |
| [03:21.46] |
|
| [03:27.27] |
Then we smite the divine |
| [03:31.77] |
For our true nature is sin |
| [03:36.52] |
To strip tender flesh from these swine |
| [03:40.27] |
Like the lick of carnivorous winds |
| [03:42.77] |
The breath of the storm that begins |
| [03:45.52] |
By forcing its Herod tongue in |
| [03:48.58] |
|
| [03:55.15] |
The womb of the holy virgin |
| [04:00.46] |
To taste of immaculate sin |
| [04:03.27] |
|
| [04:28.71] |
From temptation's peak we will see |
| [04:34.52] |
The world unfurled at last |
| [04:36.58] |
Now the wolves of time who stalk Mankind |
| [04:40.33] |
Shall be as one in grim repast |
| [04:43.96] |
|
| [04:50.39] |
Commemorating sickle moons |
| [04:54.15] |
The pack are poised to reap |
| [04:57.77] |
A scythe of white roses in bloom |
| [05:01.40] |
Whose twisted thorns will keep |
| [05:04.40] |
A crown upon a dead man |
| [05:06.84] |
Daylights crucified in sleep |
| [05:09.40] |
And lives that hide in scriptured lies |
| [05:13.40] |
To the memories of a scream |
| [05:16.65] |
|
| [05:20.83] |
And we shall dance amid the ruin |
| [05:24.83] |
As Adam and Evil |
| [05:30.15] |
Dizzy at the falling stars |
| [05:33.90] |
That burn fiercer in throes of upheaval |
| [05:36.65] |
If all must we damn for this moment |
| [05:40.46] |
Then it shall be so |
| [05:41.84] |
For our souls have crossed oceans of time |
| [05:44.59] |
To clasp one another more tightly |
| [05:47.21] |
Than Death could alone... |
| [05:49.40] |
|
| [05:53.65] |
As Zyklon beats reign to make carrion crawl |
| [06:00.14] |
The talons of lust rake a clarion call |
| [06:03.08] |
|
| [06:08.95] |
To the lick of carnivorous winds |
| [06:11.90] |
The lick of carnivorous winds |
| [06:21.40] |
|
| [06:27.96] |
|
