lyrics

I witness from this time
Hoisted upon the cross
Far into the future where my
Beloved who took of me
And is giving to his flock
He speaks with excitement
"Drink of me, this is my blood
Eat of me, this is my flesh"
With the imbibing of my fluids
They shall become a part of me
And I a part of them, one in the same
Soon a journey we shall embark

They're dressed in white, laughter rings
Throughout the museum they're held
The laughter is broken by cries
A small one pleads to leave
It matters not
The elders approach with nails
As they should for those
Who defy their lord

More voices dissent, this cannot be so!
My most devoted, time is running out
Those who will not submit before their lord
Must be forced into my light, do not fail me!

And so he approached them with my blood in one hand
And nails in the other, and gave them their choice
The children cry, their tears fall short
Screams interrupted by sacred silence
Oh sweet, sacred silence
Take them, my children!

One by one, they all fall, overtaken by my flesh or force
We embark for the roots of suffering once more
The twilight bells toll for thee
Obscenity always was and shall always be
