The Sacrament of Blood and Ash |
| To the teeth of the silver lion |
| The lamb has willingly bared its throat |
| A husk of mud shall turn into dust |
| Cast off shall be the profane robe |
| In the fiery belly of the iron lion |
| The corpse of the lamb will burn |
| Until the remains of this offering |
| Float out from the bellowing urn |
| A pool of blood |
| Becomes a crimson sea |
| And thus a smouldering seed |
| Grows into a flaming tree |
| The age-old lie of shielding feather wings |
| Overthrown by the reality of forked tongues |
| And a torch lit between the horns |
| The image in the obsidian mirror |
| Shows a newly-risen luminous man |
| Standing within a circle of warm ash |
| With his foot upon the skull of the lamb |
| Like a depthless ocean is the awakened soul |
| Yet not an infinity abyss of darkness |
| But one embracing a single sun |
| A pool of blood |
| Becomes a crimson sea |
| And thus a smouldering seed |
| Grows into a flaming tree |
