Triptych Lyrics

Torn from the pearly abyss
Naught
Claim the child who faints with a kiss
Braincells producing a crystallized hiss
Statues are lashed
Marble turns to ash

Claim the child who faints with a kiss
Bowed at the bottom of the pearly abyss
Aulos heard in a silk mist
Marsyas, satyr, flayed alive
The child arrives with a cloudless smile
The child arrives with a cloudless smile
To play the gears of light
And watch my wondering shell
Become a Triptych
Triptych
Triptych

Like a Lightning that shreds a glacier
He'll return to invert the lunar years
Intoxicated god of paleness
Dancing around orchards possessed
He'll dig a number with his feet
And blast through darkness so deep
The number be 3
Triptych
Triptych
The number be - become the
Triptych

The night arrived carrying horrendous mutations
And the secret taste of dissolution
Three by three the howling sons arise
Summoned by the cloudless child
The sickle falls on the headless trees
As the crawling crowd recites
The number 3
The number 3
The number 3

Parallel moons in the hour of gloom
Asteroids in their devotional womb
Counting the creatures that leave their lair
Mourning the serenade in my stare

Like vessels sailing into cosmic mouths
We're swallowed together
Free-falling to the south
