Mercenary Retrograde
The iron grate, the bed of stone The crawling rat, the heathen witch who cursed me with green eyes The price of sin, the aching heart The touch of youth, the falling tooth And I have far below I wish I was dead Her eyes were loveless and evil Her eyes stared to my soul And I have fallen through the cracks And Hell is having lived too long Hell is having lived too long... I wish I was dead I wish I was never born at all I wish I was dead

Leopold goes out into the arms of the night Into the garden of unholy delight Kisses her pedistal, washes her feet with his air Worships this demon of love and despair She said Under a black velvet sky Under a black velvet sky He cries, "Use me, use me, use me up and throw me out for I must have a tyrant and I can't do without, Trample me underfoot, bury my heart in the dust Venus in ermine you priestess of cruelty and lust" She said, "Shhhhhhh..." Under a black velvet sky Under a black velvet sky Under a black velvet sky Under a black velvet sky Leopold whispers, "My love I would have you to wife" And Leopold dreams of a dream that is better than life Leopold screams, "You are murdering! murdering me!" Our Lady smiles an her eyes are as cold as can be.

Dreamed a dragon five miles long And I san the Serpent's song And he whispered in my ear: "You know you're a Viper" When I breathe dragons breath Fool enough to laugh at death Cool enough to laugh at life Because I'm a Viper Now I know that my body's spent I don't care if I don't pay rent The sky is high and so am I Because I'm The Viper

You watch the images flash by upon your silver screen you think you're safe in your coccoon But He is lurking of the threshold of the universe the hands of fate are coming soon Manos! Manos! Manos! The hand of fate! You're stretched and bound and lying on my sacrificial slab My hellhound's pulling on his chain I'll take your hand into the flames Then you will know the master's pain Manos! Manos! Manos! The hand of fate!
