| Oh how my rampant desire
|
| Ripped from the presence of God
|
| Now hunger like a beast
|
| For the knowledge of evil
|
| When Joan was burnt
|
| He knew malevolence
|
| At the heart of all
|
| A cold and jagged abyss bled of sense
|
| The throne he earned
|
| Through God’s benevolence
|
| Started his own fall
|
| Clothing ragged dogma in his own magnificence
|
| Here the stench, the gold events
|
| The bold inventions of the will
|
| Luxuries and splendors past the ken of mortal men
|
| Every wanton bent desire went fulfilled
|
| A Daemon sat upon the top of the world
|
| Like a Herod over Genesis
|
| They sang hosannas as his banners unfurled
|
| Kissing terrors with paralysis
|
| His brash canvas insulted the view
|
| Moving heaven and earth to please the
|
| Tumultitudes, whom his strange retinue drew
|
| To assert the thirteenth Caesar
|
| The thirteenth Caesar
|
| Ichor kicked inside his veins
|
| The thirteenth Caesar
|
| War was licked, for shame
|
| The thirteenth Caesar
|
| Sicker, but just as vain
|
| The thirteenth Caesar
|
| Gilles De Rais
|
| When Joan was burnt
|
| He knew malevolence
|
| At the heart of all
|
| He swore henceforth he would serve evil alone
|
| Here the stench, the gold events
|
| The insurrection of his will
|
| Theatre and feasts past the ken of mortal men
|
| Every wanton bent desire went fulfilled
|
| A Daemon sat upon the top of the world
|
| Like a Herod over Genesis
|
| Devils sang hosannas as his banners unfurled
|
| Striking terror into menaces
|
| The thirteenth Caesar
|
| Ichor kicked inside his veins
|
| The thirteenth Caesar
|
| War was licked, for shame
|
| The thirteenth Caesar
|
| Sicker, but just as vain
|
| The thirteenth Caesar
|
| Gilles De Rais
|
| Suetonius and Ovid
|
| Filled his moonstruck dreams
|
| With the purple of Rome
|
| His Venus of arena-blood was dead
|
| And he was storming home
|
| The thirteenth Caesar
|
| Ichor kicked inside his veins
|
| The thirteenth Caesar
|
| War was licked, for shame
|
| The thirteenth Caesar
|
| Sicker, but just as vain
|
| The thirteenth Caesar
|
| Gilles De Rais
|
| The thirteenth Caesar
|
| Ichor kicked inside his veins
|
| The thirteenth Caesar
|
| War was licked, for shame
|
| The thirteenth Caesar
|
| Sicker, but just as vain
|
| The thirteenth Caesar
|
| Gilles De Rais |
