The Forever People
Read to me
Make your words as pictures Reveal to me The forever people Names become more More than words In foreign tongue Universal doctrine Remember each one Named even this day We'll never forget Like it or not Their beloved is theirs And they are his Praise the Lord? Hail the King? This to me A figure of tragedy They are trivial They are forgettable A sombre tale Of mankinds hope Show me its truth And with joy I will follow 04. The Bitterness And The Bereavement
Adorn magnificent costume
For I come to judge the world Be with me here in my dark place Let yours be mine Cut me and I do not bleed Heat is my body The poor and simple fools Equal under my presence Lift up your head Blessed in the womb that bare thee Feed us with knowledge Release us from atrocities And shades of sinister figures Bare witness to this orgy of glory Groping at my naked privacy Unleashing pure bitterness And I did bleed over them Hindered by savage plague Offspring wasting away Christ where is your mercy? Do listen to me pray? Cast upon us a pitying eye The baptism os such as is, Of riper years Am I blind? Who are you? He died that you might live And lived only to cleanse you From sin's polluting stain If I had the chance to cut you Believe me you would bleed And the rest... 05. Vast Choirs
Burdens of grief that weigh against me
Aid my tired eyes in their search for pitch Your kinds heart now pines For whom the gods love dies young Wrapped and confounded in a thousand fears The sadness I present, smiles with tears Where once I'd loved now lied forlorn beauty And wars abhorred by mothers No man lives so poor as he was born We don't remember pure sensations Gaze peacefully into the past I am dust , and to dust I shall return Belial, Mephisto, both shall burn me up Devour my sad whimperings The cutting whip is mine to feel No symphony in mind to colour my dreams Poena damni Sorrow everywhere Please pray for me When deep sleep falls on men Father hold me I am yours to bear Ad te In the play which he has written for the world Night is the mother of sleep Old age is a malady of which one dies Augury of a better age Sages as far as the beard Their wounds smelled so sweetly Temptation, the father of my lust Chalcedony shines like the new born Stricken I'd raise my dripping limbs Splendid was the innocentcs fall Laugh to scorn would our foe Amid wars laws are silent Drop by drop in sleep upon the heart Falls the labrious memory of pain In the rich upheavel of vast choirs Death shall flee from me Misericordium et judicium Adhoest pavimento AD te levavi ocolus meos Verba mea auribus 06. The Return Of The Beautiful
[The Silence]
Oh beautiful earth For too long you have been silent Touch me once again The dark ground lies cold Et gelidus hoc voluntas firma- mentum Hark Yes it is I The fever of mankind Urges whorish as ever I am the new Christ Silence yourself Nunquam You are powerless here Pityful one Pity me not Give back the sun Souls will mourn In this unending season of darkness Beware, ravaged one Mine is the might If you're feeble, turn away No dagger glints in my hand Technique is secret Liar She have herself to me [The Sadness] Please leave I think I'll close my eyes now The first sunshine was mine Look for me among the flowers Sleeping with the earth My Dying Bride The pity I fashion Through a rain of tears A tragic opus Immeasurable loss Tearful I rest Bask in my growing sorrow [The Lust] The females is such exquisite hell Lay my obscure hands upon you Macabre, erotica, passion Even in death, beauty is with you I extol you with loud praise You will grace my procession Why shouldn't I indulge In my own desires? Bare your breasts to slow kisses [The Battle] Away bastard dog Nunquam Down from your throne Nunquam A dagger glints in my hand Am I afraid? You'll perish alone Ha Pray to me Blasphemy Cry on me Die on me Let me out Let me out Let me out Let me out Suffer in your nakedness Before your dark art The filth and the stench of you I cry for you Is hell in itself Your reign is over now The sunlight will return To this once pertified earth Ego deicere tu pereant [The Return] Make me faint with with unending kisses My passions have all returned Warm my trembling hands We're scope for the tragedians I can see from your smile You're not here for the sunset 07. Erotic Literature
The fantastic weight of oceans
Cathedrals of immense awe The brilliance of erotic literature Enlightment of the whore Marvel at the hanging gardens The liars, faint with greed Sorrow at the wailing wall The mindless of their knees Lord, my flesh is tired Almighty soothsayer Lead me by the mind Through halls so... The truth of the Lord endureth forever Marvellous in our eyes I cannot die There is none to comfort me Mine enemies have heard my trouble Leave me in my misery Enjoy the darkness The fantastic weight of oceans Cathedrals of immense awe The brilliance of erotic literature Enlightment of the whore Marvel at the hanging gardens The liars, faint with greed Sorrow at the wailing wall The mindless of their knees |
