Ore, o, ore
Brick upon brick upon stone
Jewel of Lucifer’s crown
Hephaestian triumph
Embolden our hearts
For riddled with fear we cower
I'll light the flame of reprisal
From your ashes
Another path was learnt
Forward, upward, always
Never looking back
Satan’s sulphuric plumes
Constrict the vessels of fright
Release my spirit from this bond
How it burns
O, it burns
I beg: burn me whole
Sweat it out
Swallow it up
Get up and do your duty
Death drive, Thanatomania
Cast the first stone,
Cast the first stone, cast the first stone
Restless, tectonic
Restless, breathless
I burst
O, how the tide has turned
All the vultures fly ashore
Golden, pristine
Your perennial spark could never have grown from this soil

Lifeclot

Christ shed a tear for Narcissus
Lonely cold bitter drop of venom
It sent ripples through stale waters
Fetid pond whence all life emerges
Lifeclot
Misfortune knit with threads of flesh
O, Devilbird
Who regurgitates tainted Manna
Your sickly children beg to be fed
But it is you who shall feast on their bones
Dispirited, frigid spawn of Venus
Your breath of sulphur suffocates
(Fly, Devilbird, fly!)
Shrivelled womb, repulsive sight
Discharging pestilent lustjuice
Rotten tumorous breast laid bare
Another child sips noxious nectar
Domesticated by this lifeless stare
Mark-bearing hide, profane scar
Voces ultionis!

Intersections (Bonus)

Strike the bell
Light the flame
Pour the blood
Heed me, Sun God
Incense burns
The mist grows thick
The gash bleeds
Though horrified, I stand resolute
Now I stand at the fringe of my world
The bearer utters my name
And the boundaries of space shatter around me
I'm thrown into the nexus
Where realities are born
Yet I find my guide
The pain is at its worse
But I cannot die
As the envoy of Death
My hunger's untamed
Holy beast
Take my blood to the chambers of undying light
And I will pray to the Mountains, the Thunder, the Sun
To offer us respite
Majesty Your will is supreme
To Your health we offer young blood
Great Monarch of the realms
For the secret signs we offer our own blood
