1. Errata Stigmata
Oh well hey. What did you learn today.
Of all the world and its pain. Of
Archons insane?
Oh there's a hole up in the sky from
where the angels fall. To bring us sword
and sire children that grow up too tall
Oh there's a hole down in the ground
where all the dead men go. Down
purgatory's highways they gun their souls
Oh say you love Satan
Yeah right
What did you learn today.Crossing your
fingers. Applauding the play?
Cough up all sixes that you know all
signs of horns that you can show. Maybe
you too are like unto the Beast unto the
Fiend and Foe
For certainly the hoof and horn must be
whereever hair will grow. To call upon
the spirits foul to dance upon your
goddamn soul
Oh say you love
Say you love Satan
Yeah right
2. Radio Werewolf
Tune on. Tune in. And drop out.
Drenched in ye olde Teufelkunst. Licked
from perdition's mouth. With steel
beacons high. Against the blood red sky
. The pitchforks sing the lullaby
And I'll say. I wanna be alone just go
away. And I'll say. I wanna be a star
for just one day
On Radio Werewolf
Tune on. Tune in. And drop out. Come
in Tango Omega. King Fear is on the dow
. Up from the roof of the world. He
plays our little lives. As LP's on 45
And I'll say. I wanna be alone just go
away. And I'll say. I wanna be a star
for just one day
On Radio Werewolf
The sleep of monsters produces reason
And I'll say. There's gonna be the hell
to pay. And I'll say. I wanna be a star
for just one day
On Radio Werewolf
On turntables emerald and green. On
sieges perilous 13. Play twinkle twinkle
little star. And I'll wonder what you
are. Oh how we wonder. Just what we are
3. Hand Of Glory
Ashen the world creates itself. Up the
branches down the roots. Pecked at by
birds. By worms gnawed. At the
crossroads. By the graves among the
rowan trees. Nailed white as ivory.
With skulls that grin amidst the rot
For strange are these woods to fare.
Stranger the fruit they bear
Oh hang me high. Upon that tree. For
all the secrets to find me. As ravens'
claws. As eagles' bills. As Wotan's
eyes upon the hills. Oh ten I have of
fingers fine. For all the evil's work in
the night. Oh baby I will grow for you
from a tree
Burning with glory
Given to trolls and ogre broods. Days
will drown in twilight's gloom. Where
black dogs howl. Pulling up mandragore.
Chained to the ash forever more. Deaf to
the world's grey roar. Digging up
treasures vile and foul
Eye for an eye for a rune. Drawing down
the waning moon. Howled at by all wolves
. Ensnared 'til the day of doom
So hang me high. Upon that tree. For
all the secrets to find me. As ravens'
claws. As eagles' bills. As Wotan's
eyes upon the hills. Oh ten I have of
fingers fine. For all the evil's work in
the night. Oh baby I will grow for you
from a tree
Burning with glory
All crooks and ghouls who understand.
Cherish the work of idle hands. All of
the pages turned. All of the treasures
yearned. All of the fingers burned
Burning with Glory
4. Veritas
All of the battles lost and won. All of
the things we've said and done. Become
the dark that wells beneath the floor.
Lost in a world that I don't know
Anymore
Where no truth will set you free
All of the lessons that we learned. All
of the bridges that we burnt. Boons for
a cruel, jealous god to trade. Lost in a
world that slowly turned
All insane
Where no truth will set you free
All beauty houses the heart of pain.
Kissed by the evil. In good contained.
And all truth's grown sad with ages taint
. All of our charmed lives estranged
Where no truth will set you free
5. Skeleton Farm
Kissed by a snake. You will give birth
to a worm. That eats into the small
black hearts. Pumping poison as it turns
. Eyed by a basilisk. You will get
stoned. My love has serpents in her hair
. She combs with a rake. And stares
beyond
Oh what is life but an open grave. What
is today but tomorrow's yesterday. Hey.
Pluck out the eye that offends thee.
Raise hell or lower the heaven at least
Yeah it's a skeleton farm
Look in the abyss. And it looks up on
you. In snake pit balanced are the
scales. All souls damned versed in the
truth. Devoured by sulphur. In the
belly of wind. Monsters kill monsters.
Who kill monsters. In the small hearts.
That smile within
Oh what is life but an open grave. What
is today but tomorrow's yesterday. Hey.
Pluck out the eye that offends thee.
Raise hell or lower the heaven at least
Yeah it's a skeleton farm
6. To Behold The Suns Below
Well hail Caesar. Horses in the Senate.
Where did the eagles fly. Back in the
German woods?
Lost by the walking wounded. Fleeing the
devils of the forest. Taken to graven
idols. Down in their shrines beneath the ground
Oh to behold the suns below
A heart that used to house your love. I
offer you below now. As once above
A mirror for simple souls. That tend to
stray away from the day. This maggot
ridden horror.To sing you of summer's decay
Oh to behold the suns below
7. Exit Eden
Apples and silver bear the trees of
paradise. Visions of heaven to unfold
before our eyes. Where cherry orchards
bloom eternal summer's night. Upon a
sarcen stone we dreamed. Our sweet old lies
And into the dreams bewitched. We'd hear
the haunting song. That beckoned us to
taste. Of the dark of unripe dawn
If pride doth go before the fall. The
summer never was. Promises gilded and
hollow. No longer do bind us. All
knowing and all wise
We'll exit Eden. By the sunrise
As pestilence falls down as rain upon our
heads. Still paved with gold become the
roads that we now tread. Covered with
sores and drunk with plain mortality. We
have no thing so dear we couldn't. Part
with and leave
And if plague and hail they say. May
purge a righteous man. Tears wept in
anger. Shall be wiped away. By the
Devil's hand
If pride doth go before the fall. The
summer never was. Promises gilded and
hollow. No longer do bind us. All
knowing and all wise
We'll exit Eden. By the sunrise
(All sacred secrets and serpents. Grow
old and tangled in shadows coiled. Under
bridges over Alpheus stream. Carrying
their dust on to the sea)
8. Sol Niger
Under the sea. Dead cities in the dark.
Dreaming themselves to be. Alive once
more. And in darkened rooms. As vaulted
tombs. We hear them call. As sea
devours land. Towers yield to the sand
Oh shine on Black Sun upon all Carthage.
As a disease on all fours risen from sea
Yea shine on Black Sun upon all
Carthage. And that which never was shall
always be
And I would see the world revolve.
Around the crosses tips. Fleeing the sun
The vulture. Swooping down on a
carrion. Laughing into the nothingness.
That we flee. In mortal fear
Oh shine on Black Sun upon all Carthage.
As a disease on all fours risen from sea
Yea shine on Black Sun upon all
Carthage. And that which never was shall
always be
For what is eternity. But a shoreless
sea. One eternal day. That sees us come
and move away
9. Fey
Oh my old friend. How did we get so far
so soon. Chasing dragons in the white of
the map. In the blue of your veins
Maybe we'd played. Our little games. In
the dark of the world. For a bit too
long. And lost our souls
And with death's release. The knowledge
comes. It was the life all along. We'd
been afraid of. In carriage golden.
Drawn by horses blind. I saw you leave
this mortal life
Oh my old friend. We grew up boys with a
shadow of a man. And neither one of us
was afraid to die. Had a cyclops asked
For had we not. Buried a graveyard. Of
screamings ghosts. With a bitter pride.
And called it life
And all tomorrow's games. Are just a
memory. Of all the things you dub too
common. In carriage golden. Drawn by
horses blind. I saw you leave this
mortal life
Oh do not want too bad. Or the price
will be too dear. And do not want too
much. Or you're not ready to let go of.
And do not judge. For what do you know.
Of a life with nothing to gain. And
everything left to loose
In carriage golden. Drawn by horses
blind. I saw you leave this mortal life
10. King Fear: Song For The Damned
Pray tell me. Wise Trevrizent. Are not
the good ones all dead. In shallow
graves. In distant lands. Banished from
castles of the Grail
Into the mansions of the Sun. Where Doom
is housed in golden rooms. In amber
dreaming. Kept by silent halls. Like
all crystal. There is to fall
In girun i mus nocte et consuminur igni
ingirunimusnocteetconsuminurigni In girun
i mus nocte et consuminur igni
Pray tell me. Wise Trevrizent. Is not
our life like our love. Treasured and
clung to with tooth and nail. Yet
uncomplete until let go of
Into the mansions of the Sun. Where Doom
is housed in golden rooms. In amber
dreaming. Kept by silent halls. Like
all crystal. There is to fall
