I'm chaos international
The writing on the wall
A Lazarus in parable
A dark and sullen lullaby
Whispered softly as you die
Promising torments are nigh
Danger warning levels hissed out loud
I saw the silver lining hidden in a mushroom cloud
Now I'm reeling from the shock at ground zero
If yesterday you would have stood up proud
Then why tonight have you thrown in with the stoning crowd?
I'll breathe through the foetus of a new day kicking...
The foetus of a new day kicking
It's true that Jesus cannot save
I'm rising from the grave
To put my double cross to shame
A poison rush, a heart attack
A white assassin painted black
You'll fear this reaper coming back
Danger warning levels hissed out loud
I saw the silver lining hidden in a mushroom cloud
Now I'm reeling from the shock at ground zero
If yesterday you would have stood up proud
Then why tonight have you thrown in with the stoning crowd?
I'll breathe through the foetus of a new day kicking...
On a night like this
You laid the serpent's kiss
In this garden of Gethsemane
You played the traitor well...
In a dawn to come
I will blind the sun
To grant you pardon as my enemy
All Saints Day, the taint of rain
Blood and mud thunder all the same
To those who close their ranks to Gille's men
Bricqueville, Prelati and De Sille
Creatures of the dark creeping up and down the countryside
Little angels out to pasture once again
Torture garden rules of thumb apply
To sacred flesh and the naked eye
Goldothic this erotica
Stinking of honey and worse, sulfur
So black was the magic in this tragical kingdom
The superstitious grew
Wise to the wolves that surprised their children
Gagged in sacks and dragged back to
Tiffauges,
It's roads now home to a beautiful stranger
Lifting her veil
Spinning her lies
Tender eyes, never - ending danger
It grows
A rose that chose death for it's bed muck
Prickles in wait
Thanking her spies
Trickling thighs her only hiccup
And though she walks the forest trails
She'sfar from innocent or frail
Sha leads them down the path where darkness dwells
[ Cradle Of Filth Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]
That night is rife with celebration
The tower sings
Where so much foul illumination
Strikes a lighthouse for the things
That slither and slather at the border of the pentagram
Mid sour dreams
A beauty pageant for the gathering damned
Of slaughtered lambs and tortured scream
Praeclarum Custodem Ovium Lupum
Torture garden rules of thumb apply
To sacred flesh and the naked eye
Golgothic this erotica
Stinking of honey and worse, sulphur
So black was the magic in this tragical kingdom
In this castle of loup-garou
When moonstruck veins, inflamed, deranged on
A parcel of victims now tied to
Tiffauges,
Engorged on the hordes of the anorexic
Cherubim forced
Naked and blind
A holocaust mind designed their exit
A libertine so grim
Sometimes tore then limb from limb
Slitting their throats
Pissing on graves
Jesus saves but the devil made him
