The Seventh Gate (The 7th Gate) - Her Innocence lyrics

rate me

i saw in the right hand of Him that sat in the throne

a book written within that was sealed with seven seals

and i saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice

"who is worthy to open the book and loose the seven seals?

No man in heaven, nor on earth, nor under earth

was able to open the book nor to look upon it."

and when the Lamb broke open the seventh seal...

there was silence in heaven...

smell the sweet death on her breath

taste the impurity on her lips

her little white dress is stained with red

tainted love of the dead

adorn her face

with a black rose

so she can dream of

where all evil goes

peel her innocence

from her face

drop by drop

amputate

razors slid

across her skin

allowing all the holy in

tension swarm in her eyes

head hung low between her thighs

her thighs are red from the blood of God

damn it

her innocence is bliss
