Of Mist And Midnight Skies |
| We, the nocturnal few |
| Bound by other laws |
| To the service of the enemies of God |
| Are silent and hidden |
| Yet our exquisite fire burns on |
| Poised to engulf… |
| Tie a man to his God |
| He may not walk for fear |
| Of falling foul to temptation |
| Where once faith stood her ground |
| Renounce the guilt, ignite the flame |
| Cast the fetid virgin back from where she came |
| Drink deep of the promise in my eyes… |
| Of mist and midnight skies |
| I drown in fathomless dreams |
| And in the reeking mire of virtue scream |
| I yearn to sell my very soul |
| (And you shall |
| For none so dark & sinister |
| Will arise to embrace the Arts) |
| Do what thou wilt |
| Until the stones in my heart stand still |
| Regardless of the cost to your repugnant God |
| The last May frost may blight the crops |
| And will never be ascribed to be heavenly dog |
| Or nature, but infernal tasks… |
| By your cursings and imprecations |
| You wrong both man & beast |
| By whatever whim you serve |
| Of the Devil your leige |
| Tie belief to the trinity |
| And seven ways will be wrought to condemn thee |
| Conspiring to cull the pagan ways |
| Twist back their lies, personify their needs |
| The war begins by Satanic decree |
| If evil we be, we will our lives… |
| To mist and midnight skies |
| (I will avenge the deaths of a thousand burning children) |
| Be bound to a covenant with us in our hellish league |
| And bring the host of the nazarene to their knees |
| Breath the life of an entity never-born |
| Darkness now descend in raven form |
| The words, the burning rasp, vibrate the cosmic thread |
| Arcturus is risen Queen, hold forth the severed head to me |
| I pour my lovelorn kisses at your feet |
| Raper of all my worldly enemies |
| Lycanthropy, please poison me |
| Send acausal instincts crawling through my brain |
| Take me mistress, until perversion is fed |
| Dark Magick pleasures weaved under the jewelled moon-head |
| The cross-stick will fade when the usurper hangs |
| For now we congregate where once my angel sang |
| That night they came and took her away from me |
| I lost the woman I loved and I learned how to curse |
| And to spit in the face of their… |
| Jesus fucking christ |
| We will ride again |
| We will ride again |
| In the midnight skies |
| In the midnight |
