Confessio

Penitent! The once unlearned bequeath the faith
Upon this barren land
Whose sons revel in the impurity of old
This message with vigor and a truth to impose
Shall not be silence nor unheard!
Decreed! In paramount holiness.
Upon thy self it is implored
A trinity of the divine amongst you restored
The living victim in penitential reverence.
From the trinity brought from man to man.
The way of devotion shall but a plague to be
Flagellation of corrupt flesh to weaken
Shadows of flirtatious temptation enrapture the soul
(True liberation comes from the fallen. The cast out the ostracised!)

The Worm Turns
05:50
|

Purging flesh drips from the sky
A twisted coil of wretched grey
Death march through flame
Suffocating embers rain down
Perishing all life
Lightning bearing down
Bleached bones, burnt steel
Blood and stone
The serpent's coil
Malefic strength
A victor's conquest
Sun and moon
This gasp of fire turns in on itself
Extirpate! The unjust receiving just reward
The flesh is strong but the will weakens
Searing vengeance torn from wretched hands
Brute force, black teeth and bone
The worm turns, tears through its skin
Destroys itself, a burning rage
The scepter falls, no path to return
The worm turns

Effigy
06:51
|

So the devil she came on horse back
With talon and tail to tear a child from its mother's breast
And the devil he strode among us
Not the gleam of a blade
But a skeletal hold
As if a puppeteer
And a dance to the rhythm
Of the crash of bloodied waves
All your tales and symbols
Be they in stone
May as well be sand
These bloodied tides that come
Shall cleanse all trace of their nothingness!
(burning effigies)
(gods and idols burn)
This towering effigy
Idols as kindling to a flame
Carved into your likeness
And that of man
Effigies on the tallest of mountains
Illuminating night and life
Crude mockery burns
(All gods and idols shall burn)
