Lyrics

Mori

Cursed, Field and family
I stare down daisies in thorns we share
Up from the ground and return
Dust to dust and Horns to meal
At the edge of a precipice with heavy arms and death reigns
✤✤✤
A mother lays a wreath onto the stone
She had a young man but the flood took him before his rescue came
✤✤✤
Outcast, I’ll make a beast out of myself
The sun’s clamor sears the skin
So I’ll descend earth’s reaches
Now something stalks in the shadows, draws near to partake
These are my friends
And from the cave my song swells
✤✤✤
A mother lays the banner down on oak
She had a young boy but the sea took him before he could come home
✤✤✤
The way through the waters is kept by a shade with whom I contend for endless night
Leviathan Grips fast to my throat, pulls me down to thickest mire
An ocean on my chest, I reach in vain
✤✤✤
A mother lays a box into the soil
She had a baby boy but the father took him into his own hands
✤✤✤
I will return
This grave is not my final resting
It’s not the end
I will remain in eternal memory and Serpent’s head will forever bite the dust

Hearth

She said, let us run through the fields
Like a deer to the tail
She said, follow me into the trees
I’ll give myself to you
The shape of her aura, Igneous in my eye
✤✤✤
She said, I have a new name like honey on the tongue
or like oil on the lips
So, I shut my eyes
And the icon appeared, Emanant!
✤✤✤
She said there is a place of rest where sorrow and sighing cease
She said, hold on just a little longer
✤✤✤
Now I find noble the place with a hearth that won’t discriminate
✤✤✤
I see light through your window and your family in holiday
as snow rolls over my grave

Nymphe

Vanity
Ephemera acquired for security
Teach us how baptize our rapacity
Say a prayer lest you lose your chastity
But don’t forget to sate your Gluttony
✤✤✤
Apathy
Comforting my people in prosperity
Go in peace to love and serve community
But only if it suits your sensibilities
✤✤✤
Tell me what was it for
Your little farce has run its course
You played the whore
✤✤✤
Tyranny
Segregate assemblies maintain purity
Fold your bloody hands, express your sympathies
Surely Belial is satisfied with thee
✤✤✤
Like a chain around my neck
These words weigh heavy on my chest
Or like a thorn sunk in my side
I can’t bear to see this sight
✤✤✤
Vapidity
Strip the altars nevermind the mystery
Hide the children, keep them in puerility
Warn of hell and high water naivety
That boulder hangs around your neck so suitably
✤✤✤
Strip the altars nevermind the mystery
✤✤✤
Hypocrisy
Mocking others with a sense of piety
Washing white the tomb of our society
Soothed by Satan’s Miasmic tranquility
✤✤✤
Revelry
Entertain the masses with frivolity
Throw your hands up in demonic ecstasy
Feign a smile lest they withhold charity
✤✤✤
In your blood I said live

Lilith

We have a sister
Pale as porcelain
Blue eyes beckon
What will we do to her on that day
When the time is right
When the fruit is ripe
✤✤✤
Sweet sister
Won’t you show me the way
I’ll be close behind
Take my hand and lead
Put your left hand at the root
Put your right hand on the fruit
You got a lotta hard work to do
I got a lotta big plans for you
Take hold
✤✤✤
We have a daughter
Full and flush
Far from home
I’m dark but under my cloak you’ll find
Everything you want
Everything you need
✤✤✤
Sweet sister
Won’t you show me the way
I’ll be close behind
Take my hand and lead
Put your left hand at the root
Put your right hand on the fruit
Don’t let it go to waste
Don’t let it go to your head
Take your fill
✤✤✤
A thin veil
A thin veil
Remove
✤✤✤
Bare back, black marble
Monstrance doors, divide
Plunge the dagger full of ire
Pierce the veil over and over
Grip Achilles, strength fails, quiver
✤✤✤
Exalted inversion
Lest our host reject
The wound yields a crimson flow and grows teeth
We have a mother!
✤✤✤
Go now
Bare your fangs
The blood of men to drink
