Through Burning Fields

|
Cosmic ignition in, choking on black wind
Blood running down chromium steel
Procession burning on two wheels
Leather fist kissed death trip
Through burning fields we ride
Feel the lick of the Devil’s whip
Through burning fields we ride
Entranced by the violent flames
Through burning fields we ride
Gasoline running through my veins
Through burning fields we ride
Assend the mountain till you reach the sun
Set your courses to the heart of the sun
and roll on.

Drink the Dark

Your obsession with Death
Goes a bit too far…and you wind up alone
Drinking in the Dark!
Nobody’s gunna change your mind
These morbid visions you forever will find
A healthy dose of hate and fear
Will find you dancing in the cemetary of your mind
Drinking the dark
It’s waiting for you…to descend in to
The shadowed realm it’s made for you to dwell
Your obsession with Death
Goes a bit too far…and you wind up alone
Drinking in the Dark!

Stand before its massive gates
And stare across the seas of eternity
It stares back in your vacant soul
And shows you all the things you never wanted to know
Lost within its endless halls of shimmering light
Where freezing winds endless howel
Strapped inside my silver machine, a spectacular scene
Burning inside of the Temple!
Dripping with sin~immaculate
Chrome Temple
Trifolium of Chromium!
Drifting through the stain glass sky
Paying no attention if your even alive
Floating past the Cosmic Core, in Pleroma we soar
TO HEAVEN’S FRONT DOOR!
Dripping with sin~immaculate
Chrome Temple!
Celestial Hearst~behold thy curse
Chrome Temple!
Harvesting Eyes~knows all your lies
Chrome Temple!
Trifolium of Chromium!
Fast tracking through subconscious floors of ethereal light
Citadels rise within your mind a fantastic sight
Anthropose living in a dream of Sophia’s soft light
Trifolium of Chromium burning up the night!
Chrome Temple!

Blue Eyed Horse
04:56
|

|
Dust collects in ghost white sheets
Upon my body asleep
And I’m waking from a dream cold and bleak
With bloodshot eyes I stare out to
The world beyond these walls
And I’m yearning for a life of beauty and awe
I now draw from sacred wells the will to love
Reaching for the heavens and it’s golden light
Breath deep triumphant winds to seize the dawn!
I fell in love with a blue eyed horse
Follow it through an unforgiving course
Black clouds we never seem to shake
Forever bound by our ultimate fate
We March up hill
Cannot be killed
Stinging rain a fiendish enemy
I’ll fight forever on this blue eyed horse
A noble cause from an ancient lore
Giving worth to a shadowed past
Of grim mistakes I have made my last
For I now see
What can be real
To die again so once more I can feel
We lift our heads to golden rose kissed dawn
Tears of joy trickle down as we sing our song
Of victory over death and eternal sleep
Invoke the spell for my soul is mine to keep
For we choose love
Out pours our blood
Into the rivers of eternity

Heraldry
02:45
|

|
I’ve been asleep for years and I’m yearning for the Sun
The spell to break is smashed, dead and gone
And in the cold dawn air
The morning star does flare
A heraldry of passion for all to see for ever more
Ave Lucifer
Salvé Satanis
The dream I chased for years a laughable excuse
The shattered glass lay strewn, in a room that never had a use
I’d burn it all away to reveal the child from before
ForI now clench the blade and drink the blood
declaring holy war
In his majestic light
The gift of breath and sight
Divine defiance welling up beneath the ruins of men
And in the cold dawn air
The morning star does flare
A heraldry of passion for all to see for ever more
Arrange the fragments of a complicated past
In order to find love that’s gunna last
Conflagration across the sky promethean delight
Fly with us regardless of the dying light
And in the cold dawn air
The morning star does flare
A heraldry of passion for all to see for ever more
In his majestic light
The gift of breath and sight
Divine defiance welling up beneath the ruins of men

Murder Nation
04:59

|
Ragged hat and a dusty coat
this drifter enters town all loaded and broke
He smells of gasoline and blood
Completely filthy from the hole he’d dug
He staggers for the neon lights
A sanctuary hidden from sight
Three shots of crow to calm the nerves
Anything to forget the girl
She begged for mercy
He didn’t flinch
He shot her twice and then again
Before the eyes of a hateful god
He killed the only one he’d loved
A dark secret on a desert road—how will you ever—-cover your tracks
Still haunted by her placid eyes—heaven forever—shall fade to black
A lost soul sat empty inside——-his only friend a 45
How many more, have got to die…………So it goes

Erotic Elegy

Come on baby I want to bring you
Immortal Ecstasy
Kiss the tears right off of your face
So that you can now see clear
Consecrate our love on the altar
In a burning effegy
Surrender to the magic
Of Erotic Elegy
Incantation of adoration
Bathed in fertile moon light
Cover each other in dirt and ash
Where we lay our bodies tonight
And before dawn we shall awake
From an oh-so-rapturous dream
Walk down to the river and
Wash our bodies and souls clean
(Chorus)
And with the blessings fro the stars
With hearts entwined we’ve come this far
Hand in hand I walk with thee
Into the black horizon…alone
You’re now closer
Ever closer, closer now than ever before
Open your eyes
lift your disguise

Armageddon 415 A.D.
02:45

The fires rage in Alexandria
A brutal end to academia
The mob it screams and shouts a pagan world is rooted out
Hypatia washed away into the bloody tide that day.
Her love of wisdom guided by Sophia’s dream
Inspiration derived from an astral Queen
Learning the sacred dwells in everything you see
The secrets of the cave exist in you and me.
(Chorus)
Your father’s wisdom you endure
The Christian dogs are at the door
They come with blades and flame looking heresy
Deface everything in the ancient university
Hypatia took a stand and they spilled her blood out on the sand
Smoke billows up to god with his dripping bloody red right hand
(Chorus)
Hypatia you live still yet
Your fire burns beyond death

What once felt -Like eternity
Blows on by - Before it’s seen
Dragging our hatred
And the fear we eat
Down this darkened path
So we just let it be
(and fester)
Lost time And painful memories
Compounded And crippling
A last wish
To be redeemed
Held back in
Due to pride and greed
Frantic resentment
Artificial enemies
Sinking deeper
Through oceans of grief
Regretting everything
Yet inside we weep
For the souls we love
And the child we keep
(Locked inside)
We once were told to trust our guts
Struggling now to feel the love
Escaping from this horrid rut
Feeling the heat now from above
Our hearts are warmer than our thoughts
Our wickedness defines us not
A noxious host of endless strife
Snuffed out and ridden from our lives

Devotion
04:49
|
|||
|
Setting fire to the bad habits
Do away with all this useless shit
And I know, there will be, no love lost
Cruising now at the speed of light
Cast aside the inner struggle and strife
And within, my heart, will bear the cost
Glowing embers glowing embers for her
Growing brighter ever brighter to burn
Ascend into ethereal clouds
Ripping away a diabolical shroud
I declare, myself, no longer untrue
No excuses for my devotion
Letting go of all the harm that’s been done
Redemption, for those, who’ve paid the cost.
In blood we cut out vous
Glowing embers, glowing embers for her
Growing brighter, ever brighter to burn.
Distillation of all hopes and dreams
Come together with a primal scream for her
Concentration of a love divine
Come together beyond space and time.
