The Passion of Dionysus

Dionysus: When the sun is set I’ll seal your fate with mine… Night will burn before me a desecrated throne They’ll be turning lies to fire in the Valley of all Crime With a Miracle of bones I’ll bleed them in the fields To behold the final answer let ‘em know the rage is home!!! I can heal the desert steal fire from the sun In my glowing heart a Pyre another work is done You want something sacred don’t piss inside my Soul Harmonize your end let it fill the Roman Sky Run to the woods-the longer Night is calling Run to the woods-when Light prepares to die I’ll bring the bulls, & the snakes and the lightning Like a burning Crown Of War you best prepare to die!!! GETHSEMANE… Right…bring it back…we’ll watch Heaven burn… I gave you a promise a song and a truth I gave you forever my immortal youth… A lawyer a liar the judge and the crime A slayer betrayer divine The Nysa: Run through the Woods-the shadows here are mourning Run through the Woods-the bastards drink your wine Dionysus: I’ll tear the hooves right out of your nightmares While they’re tearing out the vines to watch Heaven burn!!! Oh let it burn! Run through the Woods-free the dangers forming Run through the Fields-hold Rites against the sky My sweat like blood heals the winter desert Thrilled I can be sure that you ‘re mine…Gethsemane Run through the woods-heed the stranger’s cry Run through the woods-seal your fate in mine We are tortured and bound…thrown out of the river The faithful inquire will I see you die…? Crowd: Yes…will I see you die under the rope & sky…? Dionysus: Yes we’ll watch Heaven burn…I’ll tear it down Can’t you stay awake for one…one fucking hour!!!??? Bastards! Motherfucker…Bitch…. Cleanse with Blood Creation The Savior God of no one The Reign of the Fallen The Kiss of Betrayal Can’t you stay awake for one…one fucking hour!

Dionysus: The darkness was unending the blood fell from their eyes Black dust defiled the morning and the ashes stilled the cries The daybreak burns to midnight all colors are denied A goddess wakes beside me but her love's a bitter vice Faith deserts the hero and all passions turn to ice A billion stars above me but their shards all bleed me white I cry out to disaster and I'm answered by despite To build a grave of spirits with the wealth of all my might All my might! King Pentheus & His Crowd: No there'll be no forgiveness no words can you atone You'll face eternal judgement and reap what you have sown Hope is lost abandoned and dignity has flown Death will be forever and victory unknown You'll never see the sun again You'll never see the sun Rising above where the flames have all died You'll never see the sun Rising black and gold Dionysus: Open every silo send death upon the wind A hellish fueled desire pain burning deep within Oh is this not your answer? Oh is this not thy quest? Your ignorance demanding the secrets of the blest King Pentheus & His Crowd: You'll never see the sun again You'll never see the sun Rising in blood where your chains are inscribed You'll never see the sun Die in black and cold Dionysus: Would you hear what's worth hearing though it's not for you to hear A carrion storm approaches are there any volunteers? The note is stilled forever encased in silver dusk Perfection is a slavior whose art has turned to rust I come not here with peace but with a sword Take solace in wounds, seek refuge in pain for that's your domain King Pentheus: You'll never see the sun again You'll never see the sun Rising in love where your friends have all died You'll never see the sun You'll never see the sun You'll never touch the moon You'll never know the warmth of an earthbound tomb You'll never kiss the sky or satisfy the why Torn between the wolf and the hunter's cry You'll never see the love in her eyes You'll never hear the truth from the lies You'll never feel her unborn surprise You'll never see the son You'll never see the son You'll never see the sun

Dionysus: Treachery blooms in the soul of the wine Which of your passions will you deify? Noble truths or savage lies I will guide your way Headlong into madness, headlong into rage Blinding god of mystery I can show you paradise Stranger doors unbalanced open all the way You and I victims of mystery There are no secrets from the son You and I together in misery Behold the fate that we have won I'll tell you why Heaven burns into your heart Like a pyre for a thousand holy slaves Heaven turns into your harm Flaming liar forever and ever ever and ever more...War! Ecstasy moves in the man-made divine Alternate powers will fear and despise Sacred songs and pantomime double suns and snakes Headlong into murder or another game When the cloud breaks overhead When the vapors swirl aside Would you dare to meet me on the killing ground? You and I will witness the mystery There are no secrets from our love You and I together in misery Behold the face that bleeds as one Inside the mask Heaven burns into your heart Light the pyre for a thousand holy slaves Heaven turns into your harm Straining liar forever and ever ever and ever War! War...War...Burn! The Nysa: The punishment given is worse than the crime Dionysus: Wherever you go...I'll be there The Maenads: We're no longer mortal, we're beyond divine Dionysus: Heaven burns into your heart Like a pyre for a thousand holy slaves Heaven turns into your harm Flaming fire forever and ever ever and ever more The beautifully savage, the tragically sane Heaven burns into your heart - Sacred fire Heaven turns into your harm Heaven worms into your heart Heaven turns into your harm Sacrifice, Ecstasy, Savagery, Butchery, Witchery, Victory! The Maenads: Butchery!

Pt. 1: The Claws of Your King Dionysus as "The Stranger": Staring now with anger in his eyes the god is next to me But blinded by your grave impiety you still refuse to see Damned by authority You wrestle the wind and kill shadows on walls But no chains of man will ever bind me fast or override my will Pentheus: Kill him now, take on the claws of your king Kill him now, tear down the world that he brings Dionysus: Brother! Madness...madness...madness...madness erupts Driven to madness by he who was brave The master has become the slave Seduced by a role you should never have played Your reasons become disarrayed I gave you my heart, you tore me apart But I own your soul...I am your soul Now choke on the meaning of my empty tomb! Towering branches of dreams of deceit Thundering over your head Mind rending passions, a heart wounded deep Slumber-less dreams wake the dead I gave you my heart, you tore me apart But I own your soul...I am your soul I gave you my life, I gave you my death But I own your soul...I am your soul From sheets of flame, headless remains Let no words come between us Shed your liar's mask Let no words come between us Learn what you have asked And the nightmare begins again with perfect stillness inside of me Let no words come between us Hell's within your grasp Crowd: Let no words come between us Play the role we cast Let no words come between us Vengeance unsurpassed Funeral birds fly from the mouth of our tomb Crying ecstasies we bloomed Dionysus: Vengeance...Hell erupts! Golden-haired zealots all frenzied with wine waiting to tear me apart Carry me back to your death in the dust An Eden dismembered by love Under the sea, under the sky I own your soul...I am your soul Imprison, defy, defeat and deny I own your soul...I am your soul Repent or revise, delusions unwise The sun burns cold, the bull appears Day's wasted...the horns rise Pt. 2: Divine Intervention Dionysus: What say you now to death on the tree? Do you understand all that you see? Who has atoned for the sins of the world the impious one here or me? The Maenads: Wisdom becomes vengeance, joy becomes terror Life is corrupted, flesh polluted, savaged unwashed, clothes rent, wracked by grief We unveil tears of degradation and doom Pentheus: In a crowd of grave employment I heard again I heard again these words A special fate will be yours Bacchants & The Nysa: Music from the mouth of Hell With mournful voice we bid farewell... Pt. 3: The Underworld Dionysus: The sky was black in mourning when I came to life I bind my soul to violence and the birth that rapes me twice I see myself...drowning in flame Pentheus: So eager to achieve what never should be sought A double suns dominion, senses overwrought I see myself...but I am not here I'm not here The sun burns cold, the rite spawns fear Dionysus: Rebirth cries! Pt. 4: The Claws of Your King Reprise Kill him now, take on the claws of your king Kill him now, tear down the world that he brings Brother! Madness erupts...

The Maenads: The roar of lions, the kiss of snakes Ritual victim, the blood escapes No mother's mercy - the mountain shakes Torn limb from limb Rip the bonds between us Dionysus: Crowned with ivy leaves, sons crucified Hellbent acclaim from pine to pine Devout possession meet vanity Transformed re-gendered foolish Bacchic scapegoat Die by my hand - Black Earth & Blood Die like a man - Black Earth & Cum Come see how real these rites can be Your false rebirth, lost sovereignty Full comprehension, this is the end Are you all watching? Watching! Sub-human nature free of its cage Unbridaled passions erupt in rage Mother remember your tragic son Gospel of vengeance sung Die by my hand - Black Earth & Blood Die like a man - Black Earth & Cum The Maenads: Die dragon born Not son of Zeus Black entity Pure vanity Obscenity Dionysus: DIE! DIE!

Dionysus: I'm drowning in the black abyss of hell Roasting on the mountains of the sun Waiting for the end to come undone While heaven pounds the nails of vicious rage This is not the end, it rises up a lie I see myself alone I am blinded by the lies and seize the pain forevermore Floating in the black abyss of hate Choking on the banquet of all time The crows surround the challenge filled with fear Where every small assassin roars away Flies incensed reply, triplet times deny I see my art in chains I am blinded by denies and feel the plains of nevermore Wise to the game I'm withdrawing from the howling ones again I can see the killing glow in their eyes I am blinded by allies and greet the road to nevermore Harvesting begins, discrete the angels fall and... Crowd: Die for the things that you believe - you will Die for the sirens of your will You'll die like every living thing, you'll die Dionysus: Throw me proud from heaven or your hell My black belle-Michelle...me well Ecstasy repaid with sleek invader's scrawl And spiteful acclaim I'm withdrawing from the scowling ones again I can see the withered goal in their eyes I am blinded by allies and greet the grail of nevermore Crowd: Die for the things that you believe - you will Die for the color of your mind, you'll die Cracked author underground You will die in sight of holy land Dionysus: Show me now your heaven or your hell Simon falls amazed sweeps the empty stage and cries Clear throughout the town prison music sounds Friend dismembered Crawlin', crawlin' under mounds Fallen...I am fallen...fallen, life unwound Wait...into the sea's tears I'll ride We're all poisons to the rose My energy, it's not the enemy it's not to blame I'm floating in a black abyss of hell I'm drowning on the violence of your role But this is not the end a stranger fate presides I see myself at last I am broken on the wheel and can't avoid it anymore See...she looms again she'll return what is mine When love dies bound to satisfy all these fools seek Disowned and then...the road descends another cell Crowd, Bacchants & Maenads: Die for the things that you believe - you will Die like the cowards under whips You'll die for everything you are You will die for the lion in your soul...no Let's see...if you're God, won't you rise? Your demise Dionysus: Broken on the wheel of death...a lost race

Dionysus: Now! I believe the sun will never rise after winter I believe the world has come to an end The rats control the ship they aren't aware that it's sinking Time and gods and songs have all been condemned Charms of the hydra, swift burning robe Hate finds it victim borne out of love With hope like a ruin The Nysa: Plague of fire - madness mars Saturn wounds Gone is he, enemy seen no more Dionysus: I can't believe the raw insult and wild accusations I can't believe this vile, criminal trend Spies control the world spawning a web of delusion Every man's a king with nothing to learn Dionysus & The Nysa: Dark are the houses and shipyards below The trees stare like crosses for those who still know Dionysus: I remember whiter horses and a challenge Now! From the mountain to the sea bed Desolation! To Bind & Kill a God Here's hoping that you'll find your devil in his prime To Bind & Kill our love Here's hoping that you'll leave your clever ear with me Here's hoping it will be sublime in constant heaven FUCK YOU! Immolation...immolation Kingdom of darkness where Orpheus played Kingdom of darkness where Sisyphus raged Immolation...immolation Kingdom of darkness where Orpheus raged Kingdom of darkness Shadows are heartless Worlds revolve... Each moment that you possess You stole from my success from my caress Fire and slaughter, faux empire Fill this seething blameless desire! I remember whiter horses and a challenge Now! From the mountain of division Judas rising I remember whiter horses, endless challenge Now the grave-worm's smooth precision Dead attraction To Bind & Kill a God Here's hoping that you'll find your devil in his prime To Bind & Kill our love What's left of this for you a dream of hell come true To Bind & Kill a God Here's hoping that you'll find your rebel son divine To Bind & Kill our love Here's hoping that you'll leave forever here with me Here's hoping it will be sublime...divine Immolation!

Dionysus: Blood burns...blood...rise! I can feel everything... Oh babe give it to me now...listen The girl with the grave deep eyes arrives A soul of pale misfortune a rising undertow A canvas for the artist's dark divinity to show Each sorrow is emboldened diseased within the vine I wander through this graveyard where the room below is mine I own the change Dark red blood framed The Nysa: God is dead - angels bow their heads God is dead - angels bow oh their heads Bow your head... Dionysus: In death she lay beside me as white as winter snow A cemetery angel, pride stinging from below A slave breaks into midnight cruel mastery refined I wander through the wilderness where the tomb below is mine I own the name Haunted cremains The Nysa: God is dead - angels bow their heads God is dead - angels bow their heads Dionysus: The hangman walks beside me raw nails to fix the pine Open courts delight, to harrow the grain I...will remind you All of the crimes you love, descend Ahhh men... Ahh...the ghost in the mirror is you The unchanging ghost is you Dark against the hill Shadows wept and then they flew Turned into you Nothing of green ever grew Ahhhh innocent blood? Ahhhh ignorant love Ahhhh contagious in grief Ahhhh abandoned beliefs The Nysa: Why do we live, why do we die...enslaved?! Dionysus: You...you won't remember your last...go ask the girl with the grave deep eyes The Nysa, The Maenads, Bacchants: God is dead - angels bow their heads God is dead - angels bow their heads Dionysus: Ride the winter spiral Repeat the course of life When broken thoughts ignite, you will find You! ALL: God is dead God is dead God...is dead Dionysus: The unchanging center is you

Dionysus: Flames and mystic symbols Songs of Wiccan rites Thriving in the palace of despite My charms against tomorrow's death designing breeds Imaging the hour of release Maenads: You've got the power of the ancient blood in your veins Striking emperor of the burning black sky defy Twin misfortune for the world-ending lie Grave be a source to life Dionysus: I Will Fear No Man For I Am A God I Will Fear No One For I Am A God a God Kings of rabid fire Sins that formalize Treat them to the final gravity The prey turns on the hunter Savage bitchery Death is dropping dead instead of me Maenads: You've got the power of the ancient blood in your veins Dionysus: I know! I'll tear the emblems of their yearning crap sty down Your stolen daughters will engage my rapt soul Slicing the blood wound white I Will Fear No Man For I Am A God I Will Fear No One For I Am A God And the burden of disgrace is no concern Haloed thousands kill concealing harm in love I Will Fear No Man For I Am A God I Will Fear No One For I Am A God Crowd: Who is your master? Dionysus: I have no master! Crowd: Who is your god? Dionysus: I am your God! Crowd: Who are the chosen? Dionysus: There are no chosen! Crowd: Who knows all the answers? Dionysus: They thunder within! Come on! Get ready to burn Watching their crass display I beat them in their drunk flight Waiting to drive me back under the glare Paralyze with wonder I seal them with the sun Writhing facades torn to frowns confined Ghostly on their drowned clouds I know their reign is done This is the end before mortar chimes Fire on all cylinders You ate of my body but not my heart! Fortune's mine, soul survivor Free the Will to Power Calling me back to roar... The Nysa: Rhyme after crime Miracle vine We will disorder to follow the rays of the shunned devils moon...consumed The Nysa, Bacchants & Maenads: All Hail Dionysus...All Hail Your King Dionysus: I Will Fear No Man For I Am A God I Will Fear No One For I Am A God Dionysus: Who is your master? Crowd: You are our master Dionysus: Who is your god? Crowd: You are our god Dionysus: Who are the chosen? Crowd: There are no chosen Dionysus: Who knows all the answers? All: They thunder within! Dionysus: I Will Fear No Man For I Am A God I Will Fear No One For I Am A God I Will Fear No Man For I Am A God I Will Fear No One For I Am A God a God! Here there are seas in the sunset infinite worlds to claim I plunder the gods in their heaven take vengeance now for Cain The righteous shall tremble the wicked shall fall by design For I come bearing creative destruction Baptized as the Will Divine Dionysus who you say is dead has returned in wrath None are safe... You ate of my body but you never got my heart But you never got my heart!
