Mysterium Tremendum

Wake! Burn! Rise! The power it holds It’s been so long Since the touch of Wrath The Flame, my dream, It burns my skin Why can't I stop smiling? Awareness of shadow and light Disgrace, knowledge Obscene domain Vanity in pain Behold what’s not for us! Wake! Arise! Burn! Leave my body behind Wake, Burn, rise How could you tear us apart and scatter our mortal love? You crave it just to destroy and profane Who has sewn my mouth? Who made the quasi-sentient? Play the dead instrument Bestiary of impossible, sing to me! I am the elegy sung In horrified silence By a dead world Ecstatic rapture, now I see Ecstatic rapture, I feed! How could you tear us apart and scatter our mortal love? You crave it just to destroy and profane I am the Agent The Elegy sung by the unborn Ligature reached For the World beneath Leave my body behind, Wake! Burn! the unextinct rises, The unextinct feasts! Mysterium Tremendum - Mysterium! Eye of the Hunter, while I burn, I’m one with the flame! Mysterium Tremendum - Mysterium! The cross that I served is no more! The rotten tooth bit on dirty flesh Spreading disease and plague. The agony sprouted in the footprints Of incubi and succubae Who wander this world!
