Various Artists - The Rape and Ruin Of Angels - Текст песни

 Hosannas in Extremis 
 Invading tempestuous skies 
 When Inanna rose, bringing angels repose 
 And Narcissus' date as their prize 
 Blinded by Diana's mirror 
 Wherein coffined truth struggles, forlorn 
 And covetous stars out their eyes to deceive 
 The horrors performed on Her shores 
 As jewelled Ishtar, in darker Aeons 
 Trespassed Ereshkigal's grasp 
 Her ravening twin, wreathed in whispers and wind 
 Now inspires Catharsis to dance 
 Through the weave of white vaults 
 Where the shadows revolt 
 At the incest of spiritual love 
 Castrata choirs, bereft of such lusts 
 Spatter virginal breasts with their blood

 The iron tongue of midnight hath told twelve
 (Thirst-ridden) Wolves serenade a moon 
 Who seems no mistress of Herself 
 And heavens pour forth vast casualties 
 Thy host given up for me 
 Thou which wert once and then ceased to be 
 Art now ensconced to chapters 
 Of a lengthening tragedy

 Whilst we scream free

 Deep forests impale the sinister mist 
 Their sorcery taught to the clouds 
 Who muster like mountains, a fountainous wish 
 To vex the sweet dead from silk odious shrouds

 Storm-woken sisters of Judas unfurl 
 As Psyche to Sapphic lament 
 Wrapt in thy tresses and taloned caresses 
 Whisper me secrets beheld beyond Death

 "Desires 
 I was loath to lose 
 To the virgin-bloodied priests 
 Whose lord fantasied on Magdalene 
 And sought to savour Her as a beast

 Her aching sex 
 A rose undone 
 As mine in tears and spasms wrung"

 Ebon Nemesis, slain Jericho's stone 
 has built thee a marbled stair 
 By candlelight to Eden abd Serpentine throne 
 Where ravens rape the tenanting angels there

 Hurry, else Death may spy us here 
 And quicken the pulse of dawn 
 Embering flames writhe to life again 
 The starry brow threshed with poisonous thorn

 Huntress, draw back the silvered bow 
 Thy dogs set upon the manger 
 The enemyy in throes...

 Whilst drifting fogs devour 
 All Hallows witching hour 
 On this long, dark seance for the soul

 Through malevolent Scylla, Charybdis graves 
 Our conquesting spirits pour forth, unassuaged 
 Occultnesses watch us and Seraph, afraid 
 Like fireflies plunge to Her maw, midst crashing black waves

 "Remember with pride what thou art 
 Lest we forget in awe of our terrible past" 

 When Dark royalties drank of despair 
 Idols hewed down 'neath a desert god's stare 
 In thrall to revenges sworn there 
 What dreams could we father, when farther we fell 
 To nightmare... ?

 "Well versed in misery 
 We have lain naked in darkest ravines 
 Now the sun has set in slumber, We delight 
 Like serpents in arousal 
 Coiled to strike at the light"

 Now abyssed Lucifers master the earth 
 Uncloister jaded harlots once served 
 Enthralled by cruel raptures, rehearsed 
 Kiss slumbered beauty and weapon our thousand year curse

 The laughter of Khaos 
 Gatekeepers flee the onslaught

 A World enslaved to flame 
 Bondage in Phallustine 
 Pleasure temples for my bride 
 Nubian grace swiftly seize 
 Thieves blood-divine 
 Empires thrive on sacrifice
