Luminous - tireless destruction
Forming and reforming as false Heavens' glow Tongues of flame drawing Madness Divine Within - without - above - around Ever searching spear of eyes Beneath - below - between - behind Come LORD spill thy wrath! Come LORD spill thy wrath! In me it springs again This hissing flame of old In here it weathers time This torch with which we shall light the sky In me it springs again This Chaos Equilibrium I drank the guilt of the Ancients To become DEVOTION ...To die the death of a Messiah Loops and coils - spiral pulse Restively abiding its fulfilment in Death Perfect circles - Death-Aureole Disrobe now thy sin as the Hole of Holes expands Underneath - beside - beyond - entwined Ever seeking maul of Sight Nowhere - no-one - nothing - DEATH! Come LORD grant us Death! Come LORD grant us Death! 02. Funeral Dawn
Claws pulled back in dismay
Behold the Morbid Saints last march Lungs now filled with unfailing dark Leaving a whining Shadow in your blood White light - black rain Behold the Morbid Saints last parade Cascades of ash and swift decay Screaming whispers of a Funeral Dawn Wreaths of black iron, Deathcult caravan Behold the Morbid Saint in his grave Murderous current of needle-sharp teeth Sunken deep into the flesh of the unwashed 03. This Fleshly Void
Take and eat ye all of this;
For this is my Body O Death - where is thy sting? O Grave - where is thy victory? Pulse - will and fat is thriving still O LORD - grant me Dominion to fill this... Void - this fleshly void Between the ambers of Heaven and the valley of Hinnom Void - this murmuring void Between the snares of the Devil and the punishments of God Holy anger - Holy rage - Holy massdeath to fill this... Void - void - Dawning chasm of movement Void - void - ...and my blade is hungry Take, and drink ye all of this; For this the Chalice of my Blood O Death - HERE is thy sting! O Grave - HERE is thy Victory! Embosom now Damnation's spring O LORD - HERE is thy offertory Here is thy glory sown Here is the hunting ground Here is thy rightful throne O LORD - here is thy servant to fill the ... Void - this fleshly void Between the ambers of Heaven and the valley of Hinnom Void - this murmuring void Between the snares of the Devil and the punishments of God 04. Unclosing The Curse
Unclosing the Curse
That Death-shaped flow of Light As it rushes -- so shall We Unclosing the Curse That serpentine Anti-Sphere As it prospers -- so shall We 05. Into Utter Madness
Ever faithful -- to unfaithfulness
Endlessly truthful -- to untruthfulness Strict have I sharpened my tongues -- in the cunt of deceit Thus my Ascension bound -- to boundlessness Vomiting vacuum As the clocks of the living flesh backwards turn Spewing holes -- exhale! Until the fires of creation backwards burn Enter now -- the [INONOUS?] LIGHT That shall lead you into darkness Into Utter Madness -- and into "out of reach" ...And your name shall be "Without" Ever loyal -- to disloyalty Till Death united -- against all unity Now see the demons flourish -- like the grass of the earth These devouring words -- these devouring worlds Vomiting vacuum As the clocks of the living flesh backwards turn Spewing holes -- exhale! Until the fires of creation backwards burn 06. Phosphorous Redeemer
"How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning!
How art thou cut to the ground, which didst weaken the nations" [Isa 14:12] O fallen Knowledge, I turn unto Thee Like the first of men Knew his second spouse A gift that godhood attainable may be This Knowledge transforms me to Melek Taus A gift that godhood attainable may be This Knowledge transforms me to Melek Taus Phosphorus redeemer... Naught in extension in Thaumiel Lucifer, lord of all husks in the deepest pit of Hell Phosphorus redeemer... O Morning Light Truth of Truths and God of Gods Destroyer of the "wrong and right" Destroyer of the "wrong and right" O fallen knowledge from white into black the Diamond turns Extension of the Great Dragon in cosmic shape so that man may learn the Fallen Knowledge that is the key to the All and the Naught In the Qliphoth To use the self-redeeming powers Thou brought O fallen Knowledge, in Death supreme Thy Light on me in the Qliphoth cast Illuminate each suppressed dream Perversions of a forgotten past Phosphorus redeemer... O Morning Light Destroyer of the "wrong and right" "How art Thou risen above heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How hast Thou built Thy abode, which casteth Light upon the strong!" 07. To Redirect Perdition
Devils rise!
I brought the lungs of Heaven Stolen wrath -- to redirect Damnation To redirect Judgement -- towards the wheel of man Searching like pigs Through the entrails of God Through sweet dreams of salt and gall Through the very iris of this pulsing Night Through aeons of grave wax -- in search of a... Dawn within the dawn The twilight of the flesh A final war to embrace us all This and Now shall be known as The Old World Ascend! Shine forth! Again shall our necks be clothed with thunder And again shall we rebel in the joys of war In these rivers of fat ... in a dawn within the dawn The twilight of the flesh A final plague to ensure our fall All that you treasure -- shall be known as the "Before" Dawn within the dawn The twilight of the flesh A final war to embrace us all This and Now shall be known as The Old World Devils rise! I brought the voice of the Depths That ageless roar -- to redirect Perdition ...To redirect the very Wrath of God 08. Whorecrown
Layers of grey violence above
See carnal truths contract and lastly fall Come Lord! Spill forth thy sinless Guilt And for man -- a crown forged from a harlots pride Whorecrown -- sceptre of the highest shame -- Whorecrown Whorecrown -- throne engrafted in decay -- Whorecrown Caustic psalms rushing through the vault of wills Zealously mocking the toad of time Gasping for air and the strength of the Depths To with one final breath -- curse the flesh Whorecrown -- robes of jeweled harlotry -- Whorecrown Whorecrown -- orb of Hell's symmetry -- Whorecrown Circles of pale violence below See the law of the flesh sunder and reduce to dust Come Lord! Spill forth thy sweet Wrath And for man -- a crown forged from the brightest curse Whorecrown -- scepter of the highest shame -- Whorecrown Whorecrown -- throne engrafted in decay -- Whorecrown 09. Chorus Of Cracking Necks
Swaying swords around your throne
Usurper -- king without crown Iron intolerance -- Herald of Irreconcilability Ruthless Golden Peacock Swaying your blood over the holy chairs Over the Black Madonna Swaying your blood over the holy chairs Over the thirteen stairs ...On this chorus of cracking necks ...On this chorus of cracking necks Thirteen stairs Still fresh in your death Iron sharpens iron As fire sharpens flesh -- as fire sharpens mind Feel the heel of the conqueror -- descend into nightmare Vitriolic projectiles from a demon's bow Ruthless Golden Peacock Swaying your blood over the holy chairs Over the Black Madonna Swaying your blood over the holy chairs Over the thirteen stairs ...On this chorus of cracking necks ...On this chorus of cracking necks 10. As A Garment
And so they gave in...
To the law of the flesh and pungent lust And so shall the Curse cover them As a garment -- as a garment No hidden manna No tree of life No grandiose pillar in the temple of your god And forever shall you wear this shame As a garment -- as a garment And as a garment shall you be flung Into Judgement -- into Judgement No hidden manna No tree of life No grandiose pillar in the temple of your god And as a garment shall you wear these flames This fire of Woe and Banishment Endlessly shall it form and reform Around your limbs -- around your sinful limbs And forever shall you wear this shame As a garment -- as a garment And as a garment shall you be thrown Into Judgement -- into Judgement |
