Ageless, eternal in grace Behold the snake of temptation! Eyes gleaming with wisdom, tongues telling of truths inversed I have swallowed the hanged man's semen with necrophageous delight and let the Devil enter with all his might And in unbearable shame, enlighted by your fathomless dark, I kneel unto thee, father, I am opened! Let your daggers pierce through and their poisonous grace be unleashed through these hungering veins The impurest of blood, the greatest of pains!!! The Devil's blood, the curse of salvation, the odious essence of His holy revelation It floats from the garden of Eden in malevolent grace The Devil's blood, through the pentagram's maze To open the gates to where deformations form, to unearthly mysteries and fire From stigmatized wounds now the river of gnosis runs free, in the glorious light of the five point star Darkness, starlight in eyes The path reveals so clear now! I drink my own blood yet the taste is not mine I behold my reflection yet noone stares back Driven by a lifeless hunger Must have it stilled Drop by drop, curse by curse, until all three cups are filled This soul prayeth not for victory, but for loss This body kneeleth not in vain, but in blood These eyes seeth not nil, but truth These words are not spoken by me, but through The Devil's blood, the curse of salvation, the odious essence of His holy revelation From the tongues of the serpent into chalices three, the Devil's blood runneth through me!

Visions of hornshaped shadows and a burning firmament black Trembling in the glory of a star delightfully glowing with evil Ten signs to spawn a thousand of children and to be given strength each time a heart it beats For they gave birth to the sun and the moon to cast shadows upon life And to burn the slaves that in madness gaze with scorn from serpent eyes Just as cancerous cocaine, deep in the veins of christ, the malignant curse divine floats within you all... you all! May the holy light of Satan's might burn my eyes! This filth is not worth the glance... Shining steel with Devil's seal, cut my flesh! Let them lick the blood, in the ashes of my fallen temple And just as cancerous cocaine, deep in the veins of christ, the malignant curse divine floats within you all And the bonds are burning along with His eyes Forever to brand the heart of god Forever... spearing cosmos' core! For it was that light that branded the Devil's mark into my flesh, my soul and my heart Never to close these eyes, never to still this thirst High on the cross of sophia, through black salvation I hang cursed

And all that is Holy, Holy shall be: Let the light bless and let these words proclaim the blessing; let the seal be broken and let the light prevail; let the earth be scorched and let the light prevail; let the wrath cleanse the world from opposition... ...and let heaven spew brimstone on sin! And all that is Holy, Holy shall be: Let alive the word's proclamation Let the laws of The Books be the laws of the Earth; let humanity be sin and let denial be bliss; let the wars cleanse the world and let their fear show their path Let the Light reign over Man and beast Let the Lord strike the sinners with plague Let the Lord, our God, reign for eternity; and all that is Holy, Holy shall be... For the carnal and earthly mouths of christ he has made blind and as vices they are Let their words and acts be spears and be chains tormenting the weeping face of their god From the valley of Sodom to the hill of Harmageddon; behold the holocaust clouds and heed the trumpet's roar! A Charge more forceful than ever witnessed May the Angels of Heaven shed the blood of Man Behold, the new and true Gospel, the words come from the Lord himself; Redemption through death! Salvation through fire! And all that is Holy, Holy shall be: Let the light bless and let these words proclaim the blessing Let the seal be broken and let the light prevail; let the earth be scorched and let the light prevail; let the wrath cleanse the world from opposition... ...and let heaven spew brimstone on sin! Let the prophets of double voices free and in Gehinnom's splendour eternally let them BURN for their true majesty; and all that is Holy, Holy shall be!!!

Blinded soul, vomit faith, fingers reaching deep Senses made dogmas and the Phoenix rises... None is denial, I am not one of mine His words unlocked Backwards, reforming what won't reflect Assembling puzzles ov flesh Perfect... yet unknown! Sigils encarved, the burning stench reveals frustration None could deny Him! Carrying the voids of those eyes... None is denial I am not one of I My words unlocked It reveals through the fall Staring at the abyss, getting further through mirrors... Flesh & mind complete, in need for substance! You are denied You are not one of He Your words are locked

He lives through me All of what I am The needle of hamartia injected in the flesh of man With the soul of a carrion; sleeping, yet awake For underneath this skin crawls Eden's cursed snake Hic est draco caudam suam devorans! You may have felt its cold caressing down your spine Gently yet with strength, and with a morbid touch For its real shape is a razor smeared with the Devil's seed, and infected with its plague are the scars from which I bleed I am the earth, chained to horns Its ground is my flesh, pierced by Holy thorns I am the earth, burning deep within Its water is my blood, blackened by my sins Swallowed by His mystery Lost within its maze The bridges behind they burn from the pyres of Hell's grace One after another the stars fade into black He has called my name There is no way back... Pierced by His will Trapped within His lair My flesh shall be the sign of that fires are to fear For those who walk upon me shall be punished for their turns For I am the earth, and within me the Devil burns! I am the earth, in the shadow of the Lord A crucifix of flesh, yet sinfully adored I am the earth, as your life with me does blend For I am His truth; the world without end... The world without end.

All ysop burnt, all fruits are poisoned Zaddik failed and Zebaoth lost The lambs are banished, the temple is soiled March on white ruin, infernal host So come forth, Lord of the triple number! Rise, oh trinity of DEATH, DEATH and DEATH! Burn this vermin world in its most deep slumber! And to all of Sheob, give the sulphur breath! Blacken all their ghastly colours and freeze to scorn their charity warmth Smear our sin to their most pure innocence and nail them all to the cross!!! For they live to die, we die to live Our beginning is their end While they fall with twelve, we rise with seven So wake the astral serpent by Thy pale hand!!! All ysop burnt, all fruits are poisoned Adonai failed and Elohim lost The lambs are slaughtered, our temple shines golden Crawl on your ruin, seraphic host... And my tongue speaks ancient names, forbidden psalms above the flames My heart pumps but void into my veins, and my pulse runs so slow, too slow for chains For chains that tie me down to earth For chains that keep up this organic curse ...for I see horns... ...golden horns... ...for I see horns... ...HORNS!!!!!!!...

The demons astir within the ruined temples of our flesh are no less real than those whose voices echo through the starless abyss No less cruel their nature, no less harmful their intent Of sinful seed, of soiled womb, circling the five wings throughout eternities And in a tomb beneath the pyramid of faith, as a crown lain at their feet; behold the pillaged and impure remains of a god who failed! Guarded by the giant pillars to be moved by the Devil alone For they are the stones of the throne of christ which He swallowed and exhaled unto earth as his own! ICHTHUS! Thine gills art dried! Iesous Christos Theou Uios Soter Where there was heart shall be vertebra... for your children have been led astray! ICHTHUS! Quench thine thirst with my urine Warm as love it shall rinse through the salt in your lungs For the thirst of the desert strangles all senses Tempted art thou and noone can resist Him... NONE! For what is the worth of a godless prophet whose tongue since long has dried, in completeness bereft from grace? Through milleniums tormented by the eternal eye and its piercing vigilance Doomed to fail, for what hope can you ignite in their forsaken hearts? When in deluge thou art fallen, your scriptures are altered and your doctrine rewritten in blood? What unity in tribes long scattered? What glory and hope in a cross that is shattered? Hark! The mourning wails of defeat echo throughout centuries! The horns of the Baphomet in the wounds of jesus thrice An allegiance of flesh and steel, unto which titan altar we all kneel Hark! The reversed words of Yahwe from the pulpits of abomination! See him now possessed and reborn, the fallen messiah alight At the burning crest of the serpent's spiral, smiling in confusion Fear all ye faithful for no longer on his forehead a crown of thorns In the shadow of the bloodstained cross christ has risen... with horns! ICHTHUS! Iniquity's mystery revealed! Iesous Christos Theou Uios Soter Where there was thorns shall be the horns of a goat, for neither in life or in death are they absent! ICHTHUS! The greatest of creations laid to waste! Malformed and depraved limbless nothingness son of a whore Two nails in your hands for both father and son and in the dirt of your feet piercing the holy spirit

From the vaults below the desert-temple to the throne among the stars In the hearts of us, your children, oh divine luminary; Thou shineth! Like sunbeams penetrating the foundations of the earth thine grace ignites the seeds of creation And in our veins is stillness, as your shadows come to life, for they are like whispers speaking of... ...death in heaven! Behold the black cloud of corpselike birds Their wings are on fire And their song has turned backwards A morbid cacophony singing of a new dawn... Burn my flesh, thou light of lights! Most eminent perfection, most magnificent of sights Mark me with thee, stainless Ar! Most real, so clear and bright they shine both eye and star Descend upon the dead, black sky! By a grace of just one glance they all will die Pour the bitter wine of salvation into our blood! And let our scars form rivers flooding the kingdom of their god Let the immense gates of heaven open Let the dawn of justice come When a thousand pale and silenced faces turn towards the sky, to behold in fear and wonder how the firmanent turns dark by the sound of a lonely trumpet calling And countless birdlike carrions fall reeking from above, embedded in a red glow telling of... ...A burning dawn! For this sunrise shall not wake you by the foul light of christ, but by Satan's fire burning in your eyes And the thundering voice of a lion over the plains of man shall proclaim the horned phoenix' final rise For it is not rain that falls tonight from the black, ominous sky, but sulphur tears from the last flock of birds And the wind carries the smell of death, from the agony in their hearts, as they fly in nameless fear towards... Luciferion!
