AdraMelekTaus
1. AdraMelekTaus
[While incarnate, man is equally an entity of intellect and flesh, and neither aspect should be overlooked in the context of establishing and maintaining a connection to our gods. To worship merely in the temple of the mind is to wield the sword with just one hand.]
A cold presence descends on us
like some mist of blackest water
drenched in this darkness
we are cleansed from all profane
The circle is forming
there's no way nor will to retreat
with faith as our fortress
we've discarded doubt and shame
Be with me now, o' children of Samael
our mouths are one as we drink from the fullmoon's well
No path is stonier than this
No path as tortouous as His
With the ichor of highest magick
the Master moistened our lips
He taught us the craft of Speech
and thus we'll make our voices heard
The Kingdom is ours to rule
and the heavens are in our grasp
let our words of power reach
all the quarters of the earth
Move, dance, give away to this trance
may hand join in hoof and hoof in hand
sing, praise, as lust smears your face
no act is unlawful in His pyre's blaze
Sin, transgress, put each border to a test
grant divine impulse full reign over flesh
boil and seethe from head down to heels
with fervour feed the God that lives in deeds
Stand with me now, o' servants of Samael
our mounts are one as we eat of the sun that fell
No path is deadlier than this
No path as glorious as His
2. Lilium Letiferum
From a single seed I have grown you an Eden
from a drop of blood the gushing rivers around
deep within I have prepared you a throne
so flourish throughme with your root in my soul
At the heart of the cross
the elements join as one
likewise has my road
merged with yours become
Naught more are men but pollen in the wind
spreading your gospel far and wide
where ever we may go your presence will follow
not as a companion but as a murderous shadow
At the heart of the cross
the elements join as one
likewise has my road
merged with yours become
One day upon my tomb a solitary beauty shall bloom
and beneath it my weary bones lie bound by your root
3. Words Envenomed
By my spell / the knots i tie to bring flames near
without sound / passed from my lips right to your ear
be thou bound / chains of dread will bind your thoughts
be thou drowned / in a tide of spite your self is lost
Hear these words of bane
may their salt inflame
the gaping wound that grows inside
hear these words of bane
may their salt turn grey
the once-fertile soil of your mind
At the break of the final dawn black vultures cloud the skies
then, as if dipped in a lake of blood, your sun will rise red
no warmth in its rays, no hope in its light
and then your knees shall hit the mud from its heart rides death
By this curse / the hounds of malice I invoke
without sound / a thousant teeth will rip your throat
be thou bound / forever sunk in restless sleep
'neath thy mound / nothing left but a maggot's feast
Feel these words of bane
like shrapnel in your brain
from this barless cage there's but one way out
feel these words of bane
guide you to your grave
yet death means not escape from hell's hungry mouths
At the break of the final dawn black vultures cloud the skies
then, as if dipped in a lake of blood, your sun will rise red
no warmth in its rays, no hope in its light
and then your knees shall hit the mud from its heart rides death
