A Tapestry of Filth 04:40
lyrics

I love you more than The color of my hair An Egyptian stone pushed By the scarab I love you more than Babies crying An embryo to manifest In the womb of the earth The invisible cord of Finely woven filth He who moulds flesh and blood That God himself could never break I love you more than The sounds of a death rattle A pledge of rebirth The yolk of resurrection I love you more than The sound of breaking bones Sitting atop the cardinal points The membrane became the mountains The invisible cord of Finely woven filth He who moulds flesh and blood That God himself could never break There is a dance In the long shadows As the lotus Opens to reveal The sun The invisible cord of Finely woven filth He who moulds flesh and blood That God himself could never break I love you more than The sound of dogs dying The thought of the original The filth divine I love you more than The sound of dogs dying The thought of the original The filth divine Eternally united Eternally united

Nausea 04:22
lyrics

The light of the sun feels uneasy Words like traps, anguish and disgust Whose face is in the mirror? The face of nothingness, to face the nothingness The magnitude of time Listen to some of these days Whose face is in the mirror? The face of nothingness, to face the nothingness Those repeating Empty gestures Are in flight The empty gesture Are in flight The light of the sun feels uneasy Words like traps, anguish and disgust Whose face is in the mirror? The face of nothingness, to face th e nothingness Rocks upon the beach The bitterness and truth Rocks upon the beach The bitterness and truth The paper in the gutter The other side of despair The paper in the gutter The other side of despair A sweet sweet sickness Despair encroaching A sweet sweet sickness Trembles on the brink A sweet sweet sickness Despair encroaching A sweet sweet sickness Trembles on the brink A sweet sweet sickness Despair encroaching A sweet sweet sickness Trembles on the brink A sweet sweet sickness Despair encroaching A sweet sweet sickness Trembles on the brink

Silent Trinity 04:47
lyrics

Her proboscis sucks your tongue Like motherhoods loving leash The salivation of sacraments The salt of profane communion A pillow full of eyes on a Blazing bed of hunger of hunger No house can withstand our venom Along the pavements swollen screams The sunrise shrieks in fury Chaste rainbows set on fire My architecture dies Tethered by euphoria The color of a silent trinity The color of a silent trinity The color of a silent trinity The color of a silent trinity Her proboscis sucks your tongue Like motherhoods loving leash The salivation of sacraments The salt of profane communion The sunrise shrieks in fury Chaste rainbows set on fire My architecture dies Tethered by euphoria Choking back the memory Of the silent trinity An impassable possession Coursing through clandestine stone Like razor blades up your spine These crawling worms intertwine A mast spent lingers on the cavity Collapsing in this unity Tongues of fire, beds are burning In the fury of this trinity Tongues of fire, beds are burning In the fury of this trinity

Beyond 05:41
lyrics

Lightning touches the dark house And its books of generations A painter keeps a flame kindled As the vigilant draw nearer They want to take her, take her back Bodies in the wasteland They want to take her, take her back Bodies in the wasteland A white theater acrid with Bodies silent as the face corrodes Spiders feast as the bath turns black The wind howling beyond the gate They want to take him, take him back Bodies in the wasteland They want to take him, take him back Bodies in the wasteland Room 36 is ringing, room 36 is ringing Room 36 is ringing, room 36 is ringing Something’s in the water Immersed in the flooded cellar An opening revealed Submerged are the remains Something’s in the water Holding you down, Holding you down They want to take them, take them back Bodies in the wasteland They want to take them, take them back Bodies in the wasteland The blind woman at the crossroads Her eyes like marble, turned to stone Silhouettes in the windows The breathless are at the threshold As countless as the stars A devouring abyss Gun shots echo, a window shatters There is no escape Now your eyes have turned to stone Face the sea of oblivion They want to take us, take us back Back into the wasteland They want to take us, take us back Back into the wasteland

Subterranean Ghosts 05:11

Kick against the pricks Live and love on the dole Mounds of blackened snow This is where it all led Subterranean ghosts rehearsing Subterranean ghosts rehearsing Impotence, despair Idleness and decay The most desolate Hopeless expression Subterranean ghosts rehearsing Subterranean ghosts rehearsing Stagnant meaningless decay Stagnant meaningless decay Stagnant meaningless decay Stagnant meaningless decay To the labyrinth of slums And dark back kitchens It is a duty to See and smell such places Monstrous scenery of Slag-heaps and foul mud An animal in a trap Unable to understand Monstrous scenery of Slag-heaps and foul mud An animal in a trap Unable to understand Kick against the pricks Live and love on the dole Mounds of blackened snow This is where it all led Subterranean ghosts rehearsing Subterranean ghosts rehearsing

Black Magic 04:26

That old black magic Got me in its spell That old black magic You weave so well Icy fingers Up and down my spine Witchcraft that Once was mine Round and round and round Down and down and down In that spin That I’m in The serpents egg Splits heaven and earth The earth as thick as blood And heaven is thin and white Conjure from corners Inner clouds and mist The veins become rivers Turning mountains to dust Round and round and round Down and down and down In that spin That I’m in The breath of god splits Into heaven and earth Black upon your tongue The spell was woven

Rage is the Fuel 04:16
lyrics

Frozen in a pool of light Naked, bathed in night A circle facing outward Rage, rage is the fuel that burns us They see it all and they see nothing Rage, rage is the fuel that binds us The only word that counts is now Paralyzed by an unholy sound Probing at united skin Unable to run Rage, rage is the fuel that burns us They see it all and they see nothing Rage, rage is the fuel that binds us The only word that counts is now All of them were lost Lost from the beginning Lost until their deaths Passing around all kinds of dreams There’s only, only one thing And that is the vow Nothing else counts, nothing else at all Nothing could prevail There’s only, only one thing And that is the vow Nothing else counts, nothing else at all Nothing could prevail Escape with the insanity Of their drives Raging at our destiny Raging at our destiny His scorn was boundless Raging toward a painted sound Raging at our destiny Raging at our destiny Rage, rage is the fuel that burns us They see it all and they see nothing Rage, rage is the fuel that binds us The only word that counts is now Rage, rage is the fuel that burns us They see it all and they see nothing Rage, rage is the fuel that binds us The only word that counts is now

There is a sound in the sky Nobody is what they seem Hate the sin but love the sinner And who is in our company? Revenge, revenge most cruel revenge Revenge, revenge most cruel revenge Cruelty is the first sentiment That nature injects into us all Revenge, revenge most cruel revenge Revenge, revenge most cruel revenge Cruelty is the first sentiment That nature injects into us all The serpent on the bed Is nature veiled in cruelty A coin upon the scale and upon the eyes As red smoke entwines the alter Revenge, revenge most cruel revenge Revenge, revenge most cruel revenge Cruelty is the first sentiment That nature injects into us all Revenge, revenge most cruel revenge Revenge, revenge most cruel revenge Cruelty is the first sentiment That nature injects into us all The drums and flutes are dancing The music will drown out the screams Never listen to your heart There are thorns everywhere Hallelujah hallelujah Hallelujah hallelujah Conquering your compassion To conquer the terror of life Never listen to your heart There are thorns everywhere Hallelujah hallelujah Hallelujah hallelujah Revenge, revenge most cruel revenge Revenge, revenge most cruel revenge Cruelty is the first sentiment That nature injects into us all Revenge, revenge most cruel revenge Revenge, revenge most cruel revenge Cruelty is the first sentiment That nature injects into us all

Martyrdom in Vain 04:25
lyrics

The abyss before birth The abyss that follows death Too much knowledge leads to Isolation Too much wealth produces Madness Abominations exist Because corporeality is cruel Let them grovel beneath this pedestal Their descendants shielded by the grave From the cemetery of history They exhume their corpses to revere Let reason absolve the blame To wisdom they are blind Feed on the carrion Immortalized in name My heartfelt damnation My sincere contempt Readied for martyrdom A martyrdom in vain Let them grovel beneath this pedestal Their descendants shielded by the grave From the cemetery of history They exhume their corpses to revere Dead from an overload of Bile, crash upon the floor Bestow upon them nothing But loathing and condemnation Epithet of the future Dawn of a new day Epithet of the future Dawn of a new day Epithet of the future Dawn of a new day Epithet of the future Dawn of a new day Hide your truths too bitter for This world Hide your truths too bitter for This world
