Flowers of Evil

We have seen the burden God has laid upon the human race All the oppression that has taken place under the sun He tests us so that we may see we're just like the animals I'll go to the same place – I'll come from dust, after dust return What can we do other than work, sleep, and do the best we can People's hearts full of evil and no one knows whether love or hate awaits If two lie down together they will keep warm But how can one keep warm alone God's in heaven and you're on earth So let your words be few We are wolves under the moon This is our song We have loved and we have lost We're ready to go Oh, one last dance In this burning church We search the ruins Slain but standing A thousand lamps The holy mountain The sleeping lions All burning sand The smell of blood Eternal war We are wolves This is our song We're ready to go Oh, one last dance One last dance

I lie and wait and stare into A dark and endless night Haunted by images The vampire at the door The night of broken glass The sprinkling of the earth The woman without a face To vanish without a trace

A goat's on the scene With a song of fallen tears The story's unfolding Ezekiel, Chapter 9 The word of King David Shall bring you paradise Just don't leave the mountain For all will be revealed The brides of the Lamb The secrets of the Seven Seals Who is this man they follow Into the eternal? Killing old and young Leave the family alone Twenty-three holy children [David Koresh: “I'm sorry some of you guys got shot But, uh, hey -- God will have to sort that out, won't he?”] They're outside in the garden Playing with guns The kingdom of the fall Coming soon at the crack of doom The first and the last Light of the world Shines for those who Remain in the house Dying for what they believe Dying for you and me Who is this man they follow Into the eternal? Killing old and young Leave the family alone Twenty-three holy children

This is the story of two young lovers on a beach Who found each other by the end of the war They set out to explore the bodies on the shore And what they found – it would hurt them Smoke mixed with fire Pity mixed with pain The waves came crashing Swept them away Confessions written in the sand The pleasures of the flesh The passion Sex and death By a thousand cuts The pleasures of the flesh By a thousand cuts It's a moonlit night in a small town A headless man, scissors in his hand Cuts the hair, cuts the tongues A chalice smashed against the stone The victim's eyes A Satanic church A woman leaps out of the window Two young soldiers at the very end They simply waltz the night away The palace of excess The madness Life and death The breaking need The palace of excess The breaking need
