CRADLE OF FILTH

CRADLE OF FILTH - Of Mist And Midnight Skies lyrics

rate me

We, the nocturnal few

bound by other laws

to the service of the enemies of god

are silent and hidden

yet our exquisite fire burns on

poised to engulf...

Tie a man to his god

he may not walk for fear

of falling foul to temptation

where once faith stood her ground

Renounce the guilt, ignite the flame

cast the fetid virgin back from where she came

drink deep of the promise in my eyes...

of mist and midnight skies

I drown in fathomless dreams

and in the reeking mire of virtue scream

I yearn to sell my very soul

(And you shall

for none so dark & sinister

will arise to embrace the Arts)

Do What Thou Wilt

until the stones in my heart stand still

regardless of the cost to your repugnant god

The last May frost may blight the crops

and will never be ascribed to be heavenly dog

or nature, but infernal tasks...

"By your cursings and imprecations

you wrong both Man & beast

by whatever whim you serve

of the Devil your leige"

Tie belief to the trinity, and seven ways

will be wrought to condemn thee

conspiring to cull the pagan ways

Twist back their lies, personify their needs

the war begins by Satanic decree

if Evil we be, we will our lives...

To mist and midnight skies

(I will avenge the deaths of a thousand burning children)

Be bound to a covenant with us in our hellish league

and bring the host of the nazarene to their knees

breath the life of an entity never-born

darkness now descend in raven form

the words, the burning rasp, vibrate the cosmic thread

Arcturus is risen Queen, hold forth the severed head to me

I pour my lovelorn kisses at your feet

raper of all my worldly enemies

Lycanthropy, please poison me

send acausal instincts crawling my brain

take me, Mistress, until perversion is fed

Dark Magick pleasures weaved under the jewelled moon-head

the cross-stick will fade when the usurper hangs

for now we congregate where once my angel sang

That night they came and took her away from me

I lost the woman I loved and I learned how to curse

and to spit in the face of their... "jesus fucking christ"

We will ride again

in the midnight skies
