Sickle constellationsStud the belts that welt the sky
Whilst the bitter winter moonProwls the clouds, dead-eyed
Like shifting parent fleshUnder silk matricide...Watchful as she was upon Eden
Where every rose arbour and orchard she sweptHid the hissing of a serpent Libido
In an ancient tryst with catastropheSoon to be kept

As through the plundered groves of the carnal gardenA fresh horror blows
But ten billion soulsAre blind to see the rotting wood for the trees

This is the theme to a better ArmageddonNighchords rake the heavens
PAN DAEMON AEONFig.2 / 2x with vocals:And what use are prayers to that "god"?
As devils bay concensus for the space to pissOn your smouldering faith
And the mouldering faceOf this world long a paradise lostFig.1 / 2x
This is the end of everythingHear the growing chora that a new dawn shall bring
Danse macabre 'neath the tilt of the zodiac
Now brighter stars shall reflect on our fate
What sick nativities will be freed when those lights burn black?
The darkside of the mirror always threw our malice back...Guitars: out, vocals:
I see the serpentine in your eyesThe nature of the beast as revelations arrive

with vocals entering 2nd time:Our screams shall trail to Angels
For those damned in flames repayAll sinners lose their lot on Judgement Day
We should have cut our losses as at Calvary
But our hearts like heavy crosses held the vain belief
Salvation, like a promised nationGleamed a claim away...

with vocals:This is the end of everything you have ever known
Buried like vanquished dreasonDeath in seasonDriven like the drifting snow(3:44)

Peace, a fragile lover, left us fantasising war
On our knees for another fucker's shoreHeiling new fleshRead, then roared
To a crooked cross and a Holy CauseWhat else be whipped to frenzy for?
with Fig.1:This is the end of everythingRear the tragedies
That the Seraphim shall singOld adversariesNext of EveNow they're clawing back
I smell their cummingAs through webbed panes of meatLed by hoary Death
They never leftDreaming sodomiesTo impress on human failure
When we've bled upon our kneesTablatures of gravel lawShall see Gehennah paved
When empires fallAnd nightmares crawlFrom the crade to enslave...
This is the end of everything
