[God]

Long I wandered through night eternal

Forged as one with the dark

Wild orchid... Serpent sunrise

Damn the horns of the moon

Fierce your eyes open grave incisions

Pale and strange in your face

Tempting torture, rape desire

Dreams are born in this place

Rise you're mine, be free

A vision of my black deeds

Your taste, embrace, that which remains unseen

[Lilith]

By the tigris, by euphrates

By the lives that we've known

Frightened boy child, kill what you love

Spirits war in your soul

Fierce your mind opens, stranger prisons

Fear and lust rule your face

[God]

Fortune's fire, rape desire

[Lilith]

Dreams are torn in this place

[God]

Rise to know your place

Forever on your knees

Your face erase 'til nothing remains

[God & Lilith]

Run from my arms, don't run from my arms

[God]

Sleep and forget you were born

[Lilith]

Fear not my face or my savage grace

All become numb with the dawn

Don't try to hide from my savage heart

[God & Lilith]

How to unlearn all the things we have learned

Mind searing thoughts cold are our hearts

[Lilith]

How to unlearn all the things I have learned... Yea!

[Lilith]

To wear the crown of whore

Or touch eternity's stare

Love is cold it tastes of hell

Beseeching me there

I am waiting

I am waiting here (for another year)

Slaving like the shrouds of tears

Waiting for all who've lost their way, you'll see them now

You'll see their mounds

All their tears are burning down

Silver fortune awaits

I am fallen like the crowd's own fear (and the first formed tear)

Callin' a thousand worlds draw near

Silent when all is scarred love awakes

[God & Lilith]

Enter the realm above

[Lilith]

Wild-born I'll teach you the secrets of wisdom

[God]

To order the night, a prison above

[Lilith]

Behold the secrets of the earth

For this is not life

And this is not death

These are things we made unseemly

[God]

And this black fortune's debt, to never return again, never!

[God]

Long I wandered through nights eternal

Forged as one with the dark

Rising up through serpent sunrise

I can't see where we are

Fierce your eyes open paler prisons

Blood looks strange in our face

Tempting torture, rape desire

[God & Lilith]

Dreams are torn in this waste

[God]

Rise to know your place

Forever on your knees

[Lilith]

I recall every flame vow

[God & Lilith]

Run from my arms, don't run from my arms

Sleep and forget you were born

[Lilith]

Rise babylon, break from your God

All become one with the dawn

Don't try to lie

To my tragic heart

How to unlearn all the things I have learned

Raise babylon safe from your God!

[God & Lilith]

How to unlearn all the things we don't know!!!

Oh, will we never learn?
