cradle of filth - tearing the veil from grace lyrics

Loading...

biblical choirs soar beyond veiled light
a swansong for ravens trapped flapping in night

a tragic yet magickal fall from grace
too awful to taste for the led and the chaste
those whose long fetters are addressed to all saints

free shining souls torn from god’s given reich
defiled, reviled, exiled from sight

and h-ll knows we sought victory
chancing the leash
but when bad die were cast
we were cast down to die
a steeple of needles thrust into our eyes
so scholars might say we were blinded by pride
like the sin of our father
whom in isaiah and midian thrived
regaining his sights for the storming of
skies

and after descenturies have crawled, vilified
our dark harkened day on spread wing now arrives

for eternity is a coprophagic
backward figure head
gorging on her own bitter end
and we have eaten sh-t
until we’re close to addicts
now grime is running out
for us to make amends

to retake what once was lost
to exalt our throne above the stars of god

to throw our f-ck into gates and guts
of a severed neverland
where we, the d-mned
once pleasured ran
like seamen from the phallus sea

atrocious oceans must be crossed
to exalt our throne above the stars of god

the thirteenth sign of the zodiac climbs
cowled and scythed to snuff the sunrise
to snuff the sunrise

throwing shades of war before like prophecy
nightbreed freed from the vasty deep
nasty reap of freaks forsaken
and when sultry dusk disrobes they’ll learn
she is not a natural blonde
for the lower she goes the darker it grows
an eve that blows on her knees for satan

f-ll-t-d satan
screams congeal in clotted pearl
as he unfurls from aching hibernation

stormbringer drums thunder to full dis orchestra
as lighting streaks with fire
black clouds that shroud the earth
whose cold br–sts have held us in scar pillories
but now the sun is loath to come
the crescent moon is
freed

elated satan
the scimitar slash to the undergash
of heaven too slight for penetration

we strike as wolves from the thickening fog
to exalt our throne over the stars of god
lowly holy goats bare the brunt
of rabid dogmas on a stellar bearhunt
bastioned in citadels and monastic cells
that smell of blessed c-nt
like a convent where crosses rust
from thirty dirty habits of shaved nun
there where deeper needs are begged of l-st
and cess and less impress enough

obtaining the lord of our gaurdian anger
and death’s tunnel vision
bad thing in collision
the locking of eyes and jagged antler

unpicking the seams of fate sewn over dreams
feasting from throats of celestial theives

and god knows we seek victory
now that we are unleashed
to drive nails home of blind faith through those
who drove us from error to terror below
refugees clung to a crown furred in flies
tarred with red honey, the plaster
of many a spire that aspired to rise
seeking messiahs that by us soon
die

in the start like a cast
in morality plays
our hearts wore a mask
of dead rooks in the rain
the world was our cloister
no prayer, bent in shame
our once lucent plumage
stung with h-rn withered grey
and away

as aeons slew so we grew to myth
revenge accrued to a monolith
bursting through from our roofed abyss
like an aether greased fist
now vulvite gates are so sorely missed
our horror pours through the orifice
where once the spheres and archangels kissed
phallelujah

f-ll-t-d satan
his coming -ssails
the night in gales
that bewail turned tides
that engulf their nation
f-ckers

now divint-ty is a worm ridden mouth
in a darkened high house
overrun by disease
so let the truth be wrung
from veil and sanctum undone
that the banished ones intent
on reinstatement have won

we breathe by virtue of their rot
now our souls exult above the stars of
stars of god
