mercy (black metal) - immortality lyrics
i bowed my head in anguish sore
when life made death his bride
soul, we are lost forever more!
unto my soul i cried
nay, waste in wailing not thy breath
my soul replied to me
the child of life and death
behold! behold! immortality!
hypocrisy will serve as well
oh, it will serve us well
persecution and promotion
do equally advance devotion
so round white stones will serve, they say
as well as eggs to makе hens lay
in a church furnished with gable
thе penitents’ dresses are sealskin and sable
an altar with gargoyle and groin
the odor of sanctity is eau+de+cologne
could lucifer, flying from hades
gaze down on this crowd with panniers and paints
he’d say, looking at the lords and the ladies
oh, where is all+sinners, if this is all+saints?
how shall the living be comforted for the dead
when they are gone, nothing’s left behind
but a vague music of the words they said
be patient to the end, and you shall sleep
pillowed on heartsease, you will not have to weep
