Between fair and foul, midst love and loathing Through filth and fane In the eye of the storm Is where I dwell
To contain the opposites And revel on what tears me apart I thrive on the conflict within I am the flame and the fuse, I espouse the above and below
All in one One in all
Have I brought reproach upon myself? Or have I reached the apex of mine? Lost in the deepest pits of the soul The nethermost peaks take years to climb
I contain the opposites And revel on what tears me apart I thrive on the conflict within And let Eden and Sheol in my blood unite
I own the contraries And from them distill the nectar of life As the lusts that rend my flesh Become the blade that cuts the throat of a lamb
The confusion of lifeblood The turmoil of will The fractures of purity Death throes and resurrection within
Where the twain shall never meet Dance the sisters three And tell that I am mine, one in the multitude Manifold in singularity
To own the contraries And to sunder the veil of denial To turn the lusts that rend my flesh Into a blade that slays a lamb
The effusion of lifeblood The pain divine The combustion of the self A nail through the wrist of Christ
In fevers for too fucking long It took a lifetime to break free My innermost and utmost drive That only torn to pieces, I am most complete
Make me whole! Dissolve and coagulate
On the paths of excess Towards my palace of wisdom From the peaks of euphoria Straight into the pits of doubt
…and back again
The search for lifeblood The pain divine The combustion of the self A stake through the heart of ChristTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
