lyrics

Beneath the sands of time lies a strange and deceptive life
The oracle of the gods is the child-voice of love

In thine own soul hear thou it.
Heed not the siren-voice of sense, or the phantom-voice of reason.

Rest in simplicity and behold the face of virtue
Beguiling life, the face of deceit, with eyes piercing dusk
In essence shall be; the face of onslaught.

Behold the clenched fist, the bruised lip, the broken sceptre.
Here be the face of the new order, the face of Cain!

Grinning bearer of the scythe, pay thy dues to Lilith
With gleaming thought, outflung to none
The origin of sin is the great threnody of God, the victory of instinct
Sacrificial vessel of the night.
The remedy is rapture

In motionless dance and speechless song, the betrothed to mater night
Son of serpent and father of lies, take refuge within the flames of the earth

Upon the seas of bitterness,
And the shores of delight
The maelstrom shall shape the archetype of might!
