At the barren edge of the silence of night 'neath the snare where the snake sheds its skin Where the rivers of our strangest dreams collide I ventured into the wilderness of death's awakening
To seek for that which all others abhor On a road that defies the course of the world With the blood of my heart seal the fated oath At the point where all moments unfurl I chance my all for everything other My soul unto you, demon and brother
Into the circle where eye must meet eye With the one who is all that I am not And the night is but all that lies in between Where sown is my self's seed Within the torn tome of destiny
All secrets are tied to none strangling noose That's solved and rebound upon the gallows hill's top And in a storm of peacock feathered bliss Shall strange new wine fall into my cup
For between the cold fingers fetching sense Falls golden sparks and the fallen angels seed That flows into the core of crossroads Where all paths crooked and narrow must lead
Doorways unlocked, chalice overturned I slit the jaded throat that sings the wretched world And dive into the instant, the void of your face Where the veins of God opens beneath my lightning bolt blade
The hour is struck, the time is at hand To rewrite the rhymes that our cruel fate once planned O Devil and God, on your road I embark For we are bound everlasting by pact, birth and a murderer's mark
