lyrics

The night we deigned fit to escape
As last vestige of dusk breaks way
A mortal foreplay had with fate
Under a swollen moon and starless sky
The itching impulse to be gone
They’ll catch up on our trail 'fore long
A streaking glimpse of tempered hate
When love is gone and faith does die.

Paving thru the sky, gilded souls alight
Crying terror thru the forest of a bloodmoon night
Of the malcontents, all the tortured repent
Clarifying bite of iron serves to cull dissent.
At the first church bell, braying hounds of hell,
In wretchedness, descend upon the tainted flock
Of men to die, immortal, I
Step forth, declaring, “CRUCIFY!!”

Torturous one, unknowing, undone in malevolent games under a ruinous sun
Running helter-pace gives such a quickened cadence to her breath
Misery won, forgiven among the strings of her heart to an elegy sung
So scared, your tears tell distant years of everything we haven't left

You will bow to me, enslaved
You'll find divine a bitter reign
In all you are, you're drowning in the shame
So many nights, I've paid my lot
I've watched the years succumb to rot
A fallen dream, a gleam of Golgorath
Won't stop us now!

Paintings peeling, subjects kneeling
‘fore the holy, insofar (as)
Hatred, healing, blood-red feeling
Under these Golgothic stars
Cleansed in fire, ever higher,
We three priests of Orient stand
Bearing gifts of pure desire
In this untempered, broken land

Devoted to the votive, holy standard of love breeds the picking and the slaughter of the highest above
To lure upon the missive with a recalcitrant fist is but a thorn in the maiden of the men they have "dismissed"
Passion for the cession of her insolent sway, laying, praying for the darkness of a virulent day
In the grip of surest pleasures, put the coffin to the nail, in the crucible of tragedy, explanations fail

The night was cold, the moon was black
Their petty legions persevere in driving us back
To the morbid chapel that god on high
Himself forsaken to the care of those who hate the light


We hail you
Darkly darkly lord of night
On thy Dias of dizzy height
Broken we, in the terror of flight
We, the priests of a new disorder

WE ARE THE PRIESTS AND THIS IS OUR REQUIEM.
