Before the dawns, our hearts they shall hunt
The smell of blood excites the nostrils
At first cut, the sanguinary worship of red
Spraying punctures, a sight so divine
Clutching her carcass, face frozen in time
A distorted dialect for the draining of veins
To the flooding of bed sheets with sick crimson rain
A warped diction of scriptures befouled
Traditions steeped within disgraces reviled
Father, unholy one, to your night realm, we bow
Nocturnal majesty, sworn to black we'll always be
Damnation's diction, a deadly disclosure
Our poisons in their goblets drip
How perfectly hideous, so eloquently scribed
Each scripture so skillfully sick
Parchments scabbed over with plasmatic prose
Prophesize permanent night
The words of sheer blackness paint ebony my soul
And bestow me with infernal might
A warped diction of scriptures befouled
Traditions steeped within disgraces reviled
Father, unholy one, to your night realm, we bow
Nocturnal majesty, sworn to black we'll always be
Hatred and persistence destined to see
A complete eclipse of that hated sphere, the sun
By the light unspoken
This language of brutality
Enraptured, I have become unholy
Night's arms welcome me
Nocturnal majesty, sworn to black we'll always be
Hatred and persistence, destined to see
A complete eclipse of that hated sphere, the sun
Between the lies, our dead language tongues Before the dawns, our hearts they shall hunt The smell of blood excites the nostrils At first cut, the sanguinary worship of red Spraying punctures, a sight so divine Clutching her carcass, face frozen in time A distorted dialect for the draining of veins To the flooding of bed sheets with sick crimson rain A warped diction of scriptures befouled Traditions steeped within disgraces reviled Father, unholy one, to your night realm, we bow Nocturnal majesty, sworn to black we'll always be Damnation's diction, a deadly disclosure Our poisons in their goblets drip How perfectly hideous, so eloquently scribed Each scripture so skillfully sick Parchments scabbed over with plasmatic prose Prophesize permanent night The words of sheer blackness paint ebony my soul And bestow me with infernal might A warped diction of scriptures befouled Traditions steeped within disgraces reviled Father, unholy one, to your night realm, we bow Nocturnal majesty, sworn to black we'll always be Hatred and persistence destined to see A complete eclipse of that hated sphere, the sun By the light unspoken This language of brutality Enraptured, I have become unholy Night's arms welcome me Nocturnal majesty, sworn to black we'll always be Hatred and persistence, destined to see A complete eclipse of that hated sphere, the sun Explain Request ×
