Abraham

The Lord said to Abraham
“Come on now, Abraham,
Gimme now your second child”
The Lord said to Abraham
“Come on now, Abraham,
Gimme now your second child”
That ain’t no Lord
I said that ain’t no Lord
That ain’t no Lord
Take away a little child
Abraham a kill his boy
Abraham a kill his boy
Didn’t give a second thought
Abraham a kill his boy
Abraham a kill his boy
Didn’t give a second thought
That ain’t no Lord
I said that ain’t no Lord
That ain’t no Lord
Just a devil whisper in your ears
What kinda man
Now tell me, father Abraham
Is cuttin’ on a baby’s throat?
What kinda man
Now tell me, father Abraham
Is cuttin’ on a baby’s throat?
That ain’t no Lord
I said that ain’t no Lord
That ain’t no Lord
Just a devil by another name
That ain’t no Lord
I said that ain’t no Lord
That ain’t no Lord
Just madness ringing in his ears

Those Wicked Cards
03:28
|

Drink up
Drink up, it’s time.
One more for the road
Drink up, it’s time.
7 is the number
and 7 are the signs.
Goodnight ladies
It’s time.
The Sun is for sadness and mourning the past
The Queen of Blades for reason
The Hanged Man for sacrifice
For waiting and for seeking
Eyes wide open.
See the cards unfold.
Hear the bones a’rattling
The hands pale and cold.
One more? It’s time.
Sink another for Old Scratch
For the shadows
The thoughts that hold us back
Seven of coins for the benefits of toil
Two vessels for attraction
Eight blades root me to the soil
Stagnation and inaction
Drink up
Drink up, it’s time.
One more for the road
Drink up, it’s time.
See the smiling footmen
Four carriages in a line.
Goodnight ladies
Goodnight. It’s time.
And the last to show his face is Death
For change and transformation
The beginning and the end
For all it brings damnation

Draw a line through history,
The start of you
The end of me
A mind that waits and ever contemplates
Its lonely fate
And wounded grace
And now we go to meet the Pale King
Empty handed, hollow words we bring
Waiting for the world to end
Waiting for the world to end
The simulation’s breaking down and taking
All our time
End of the line
A single ship amongst the stars
In a sea of souls
Our psychic shoals
And now we go to meet the Pale King
Empty handed, hollow words we bring
Waiting for the world to end
Waiting for the world to end

Leviathan
02:38
|

To make a hill a mountain
To make a man a god
Leviathan
These ancient lands and peoples
Met by iconoclasts
Leviathan
I see the walls are falling
A flock of birds outside
There’s fire on the horizon
I can hear the trumpet call
Leviathan

Lost Boy
05:12
|

I can’t remember the last time
That I came to you for a lifeline
But here I am, I’m waiting in line
And do you remember the first time?
We stared down the barrel with sublime bravery
We cut loose and cut deep
Be the release
The stabbing pain that we can’t resist
Be the sleeper hold
The phantom limb pulling us back from the abyss
You said these were the best times
As you brushed the hair out of your eyes
Be the last line
A final spark on a carpet of ash
Be the push
Be a guide through the looking glass
You said these were the best times
As you brushed the hair out of your eyes
And we flew so close to the sun
Surrounded by broken mirror glass
A thousand accusers stare back
Each one a piece of me
Each one a possibility

Heart of Darkness
04:03
|
|||
These people they don’t speak for me
With their rules and their laws and their tape tying me up
They want me to look right and speak right and fit right and be like they want me to
I want everything that they stand for corrupt
Baby there’s a black hole where my heart should be
I’m malevolence and hatred so twisted and cruel
A righteousness and a fire to the anger inside
But for now I’ll stay dumb, play the fool.
I bide my time plotting vengeance
No faith or love will stay my hand
I’ll bring my pride and my wrath and my wantonness and my greed
I will lay waste to the promised land
And now it is time while they’re sleeping on the job
It’s time for me and my friends to ride into town
I’ll bring pestilence and famine and war and death
And I’ll burn their fucking cities to the ground

Morning Star
03:43
|
|||
Floating in in the middle of a bubble that is slowly coming down on me
It’s drowning me
It’s swallowing me whole
Walls begin to stare me down they’re bearing down they’re breaking down
They’re crushing me imploding me
They’re smothering my soul
Shine a light
Shine a light and set the world on fire
Let’s burn away the disarray
And celebrate our scars
Shine a light
Shine a light into the corners
Where the magic lies and worlds collide
Good morning, Morning Star
Trapped inside a puzzle that’s all muddled up and shooting up won’t make it stop
Won’t turn it off
Won’t help to take the strain
I’m waiting for an answer to a question that I reckon’s never coming
‘cos I’m thinking that
My trust has been misplaced
Shine a light
Shine a light and set the world on fire
Let’s burn away the disarray
And celebrate our scars
Shine a light
Shine a light into the corners
Where the magic lies and worlds collide
Good morning, Morning Star
And even if they bury us face down
We’ll still be gazing at the stars

Let Me In
03:29
|
|||
Won’t you let me in?
Won’t you let me in?
We could live forever
We could live in sin…
What’s here for you now?
Your time is running out.
So let me in
If you let me in
We’ll embrace forever
We can whirl and spin…
Is there nothing you desire?
Don’t you know that it’s warmer by the fire?
Can’t you see it’s getting dark?
And it’s safe with me, below
I can show you so much more
Than the world you think you know
The sky is falling…
So won’t you let me in?

Music of the Spheres
05:45
|
|||
Infinite positions in obsidian reflect
Time and space and every souls’ eternal disconnect
Sacred candles burn
Visions twist and turn
The workings and the gears
The music of the spheres
The mirror ball of images; a shimmering mirage
Defying revelation in kaleidoscope collage
Sacred candles burn
Visions twist and turn
The workings and the gears
The music of the spheres
Ripples smear the surface bending light from underneath
The promise of enlightenment forever out of reach
Sacred candles burn
Visions twist and turn
The workings and the gears
The music of the spheres
