Last Rites – The Iron Tree lyrics
Hanging on the Iron Tree
Fat white worms devour me
Drowning in the Sea of Blood
Buried in the poisoned mud
I was taken to the South
Serpents came from my mouth
Dropped in the River of Fire
I heard the Angels' Choir
The darkness was dispersed
And I became immersed
In the glare of seven suns
Cherubim and Seraphim
I saw the Virgin Mary
She was weeping very bitterly
I asked her why are you weeping
Why did you come?
And the Holy Virgin said to me
I have come down here to see
The torments suffered by the Weak
By those who turned the Other Cheek
Ten Thousand Angels began to sing
A multitude of bells began to ring
The divine procession turned away
And took with them the light of day
Fat white worms devour me
Drowning in the Sea of Blood
Buried in the poisoned mud
I was taken to the South
Serpents came from my mouth
Dropped in the River of Fire
I heard the Angels' Choir
The darkness was dispersed
And I became immersed
In the glare of seven suns
Cherubim and Seraphim
I saw the Virgin Mary
She was weeping very bitterly
I asked her why are you weeping
Why did you come?
And the Holy Virgin said to me
I have come down here to see
The torments suffered by the Weak
By those who turned the Other Cheek
Ten Thousand Angels began to sing
A multitude of bells began to ring
The divine procession turned away
And took with them the light of day
