Mesmeric Furnace Lyrics

(I): Serpent’s skin be shed
And second faces turn
My loves all rent asunder
Righteous, with no victor’s smile
I bow my knee in supplication
To return to hell

(He): With forked and venomous tongue
You ravaged Dusk
A gift undone
(I): Return to origin, in chains be bound, delivered
(He):Gehenna’s maw be filled with a taste of failures’ child
(I): Cast as sinner yet my only wounds
Were words of challenge and pride
And the need to destroy oppression and let man be free

Head bowed
Acquiescent, (I/He): Immolation
(I): As clay returns to dust
And ten thousand stand
(I/He): To rebuild Jerusalem

(I): Once ye spoke
To punish man no more
For in their genesis
I embedded seven seeds
Yet floods ‘gat plagues
(He):“Hail the apocalypse!”

(I): No falling stars shall stay the heavens and betray my legacy

My fruit shall wither on your vine
For ripening needs a chaos hand

(‘Alpha’ I, reborn): I STARE INTO THE EFFERVESCENCE
INTO RELENTLESS CASCADES
TUMULTUOUS SWEETNESS
OF JERUSALEM’S CRIES

PRIDE, WRATH, GLUTTONY, LUST
ENVY, GREED, DESPAIR
SEVEN INFECTIONS
FOR MAN IS MINE

BRUTUS, JUDAS, CASSIUS CHEWED
FROM NINE CIRCLES REBORN
FOR THEY ARE ME, AS I AM THEY

I RISE!
I RISE!
I RISE!
I RISE!
