The Garden |
| New light has formed, from the darkness torn |
| Of dust and sand, mankind is born |
| Our garden evergreen, it’s flowers, so serene |
| We sing along with birds naked, free |
| Our curiosity led us to a tree |
| We ate from it the fruits of poisoned destiny |
| Horns of goat, tongue of serpent |
| Head of dog, body of man |
| He has chosen to pervert God’s land |
| In his heaven |
| The Garden Of Unearthly Delights |
| Flowers of blood grow in love’s garden |
| Upon the black grass of betrothal |
| We have chosen to pervert God’s land |
| This our heaven |
| The Garden Of Unearthly Delights |
| Stillborn beauty greets the air |
| Cadaverous Butterfly draws near |
| Skullish face, scarlet wings |
| Eerie grace of death she brings |
| Haggard marble crosses bare |
| Entrance to her pesty lair |
| Skullish face, Vampire wings |
| Demon’s ace fluttering |
| Poisoned perfume leads you there |
| Carnivorous insect has you snared |
| Fallen prey, mesmerised |
| Skullish face eats your eyes |
| In steaming woodlands you awake |
| Eyes dripping blood |
| Rats digging a grave at your feet as |
| Storm clouds gather above |
| In earths garden, nature sings mans requiem |
| Damp, numb, lost on the cold ground |
| Whilst spiders explore your flesh |
| Raise your head from mossy stone and |
| Slimy dew on which you rest |
| In death’s sanction — all life’s beauty is its end |
| Witching moon burning — frozen sun ashamed to rise |
| Earth’s vampires thirsting — for a final taste of life |
| Flight of the reaper, coming back to greet man’s end |
| Cosmic Judge awakens, from his council we’re expelled |
| White dove on fire — flies into Azrael’s sky |
| Black-winged messiah — accepts man’s sacrifice |
| Flight of the reaper — he arrives at his promised land |
| Our funeral curator — cups the earth with skeletal hands |
| Dawn creeps on, as night withdraws |
| Orchid sun — rises paused |
| Buldophyllum, Barbigerum |
| Purpureoachis, Dyanum |
| Dendrochilum, Cobbianum |
| Orchis — Mascula |
| You pass the valley of death |
| Rejoin the ghoulish droll procession |
| You thought you had left |
| Orikifirus sends down hearses |
| From the kingdom of dead our sun |
| Whores to oblivion now are taken |
| To your promised land |
| Burning in the flames of pious self-shame |
| A pure, divine existence can’t be reborn again |
| For your virtue there is no reward |
| Grand illusions of a heaven flawed |
| Break the skeletal chain — to be reborn again |
| No lies, no shame, an existence profane |
| Celebrating our freedom |
| In this prison of God’s kingdom |
| Fireless sun, Morgue like planet |
| Deceased minds now control it |
| We have chosen to accept God’s land |
| This is our heaven |
| The Garden Of Unearthly Delights |
| Soldiers now walk through the streets so cold |
| Concrete walls, dark buildings fall |
| Our garden has turned grey, its beauty gone away |
| Earth became a grave for mature’s way |
| Seeds of decay have grown into today |
| Endtyme has come, all light fades away |
