Lyrics
The Satanist
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I descended from the mount sinai
Unleashed the splendour upon a scroundel mob
To shelter where no messianic light
Drove one single ray into the pulp ov life
Oh, sweet salome, I beckon thee
Bring forth thy heinous offering
Without your love, so incomplete
Corrupt me with your dignity
I decompose in rapture ov hells
Dissolve, divide, disintegrate
I am yours in euphoria below
At faintest whim they would impale the sun
And thus the sheep in me became the wolf in man
I am the fly that flew forth from the ark
My thoughts like insects whoring wounds divine
Been bored with cosmos my dear old foe
This universe has never been enough
Compelled to liberate the spring ov life
When the levee breaks gush forth o' stream ov ice
I decompose in rapture ov hells
Dissolve divide disintegrate
I am yours in euphoria below
I cast my halo from perdition's clay
Behold my bliss profane
Born ov a lie condemned to lurk
Live in denial yet coiled aflame
I am the great rebellion
Neath milton's tomb I dwell
An existence even sin would not pardon
No guilt, no reason, saviour, or shame
