Kingdom of Flies

There's a fire in Babylon at the end of days
When all the rivers dry and the saints escape.
"But who can make war against our glorious beast?
Who dares attack us in a time of peace?"

All the prophets, fed to the flies

But all the ancient mountains have been seized
(Thrown from the heavens like meteors)
Crashing in to the deep seas
(Waves that will wash away many more)

There's a fire in Babylon, it's all the news
It's on every channel, on anyone you choose.
The Master of War, with his bow, stands true
And his armies are gathered for the final feud.

"Rise up and defeat the false God!"

But all the ancient mountains have been seized
(Thrown from the heavens like meteors)
Crashing in to the deep seas
(Waves that will wash away many more)
Soldiers of death will decay
(Feast for the Kingdom of Flies)

There's a fire in Babylon that's out of control.
The tides broke the bridges so there's nowhere to go.
The angels are coming and they don't look pleased.
From the palace to the peers, their on their knees.
The moon is red and the blood spills free
The last Holy War is a war indeed.
The righteous were beheaded but their souls ascend
While the dragons children have a darker end.

They gnash on their bones as the flame rise higher

All the ancient mountains have been seized
(Thrown from the heavens like meteors)
Crashing in to the deep seas
(Waves that will wash away many more)
Soldiers of death will decay
(Feast for the Kingdom of Flies)

There's a fire in Babylon, it's the end of days.
There's a fire in Babylon, it's the end of days.
There's a fire in Babylon.
There's a fire in Babylon.

Defeatable

In the wastes and sulphur pits
I wander deep and keep myself
Along the walls to not fall in
And become as
The Demon Bitch.

The Witch that Set had set upon me
And my God had left to haunt me
Tore the pillars that did hold me
On the cliffs of wastes
And sulphur pits.

Light may be so far gone
More than I could count upon
As winds siege on to me
As tides scream
To devour me
I Rise!

KRJ

Unsheathe your claws
Bare out your fangs,
Dissect
My shell,
Rip off my skin
And crush me down
To die
Within.
Along the sides
Of both my eyes
Are golden
Rims
To see our dark fate
By the margins of lakes
Surrounded by soldiers
Armoured by hate.

I almost drowned
As I inhaled
The bombs
Fallout
That were left
After your theft
Of hearts
And minds.
Along the sides
Of both my eyes
Are golden
Rims
To see our dark fate
In the cavalry parade
Surrounded by demons
Who cry out in pain.

Ravens and crows
Screech to the sky
As thunders
Colide
Over the tombs
Of you and I
Buried in stone
And lye.
Along the side
Of both my eyes
Are golden
Rims
But I shut them so tight
Seeing too much tonight
And I don't want to tell
You any more.

Requiem for a White Rose Pt. 1

Tonight it's raining
And you've got your hood up
To hide your face
From the shadows passing
Who see the beauty
Not the beast
That you think you've become.
As painted skin
Begins to run
You turn around to go back home
Where no one waits
To say "Hello

It's so good your back again."

Confide in me
Your hopeless dreams
And wish away
Your yesterdays.
Forget the times
You were left behind,
The friends you made
And past mistakes.

The attention feels good
From the boys and girls
As you walk in to the room.
But the moment fades too fast
So you find a guy who
You know you could have.
Let him shake and studder
As he trys not to mutter.
Lean in, whisper
With all your guile
"Do you want to come back to mine?"

And you don't know why.

Confide in me
Your hopeless dreams
And wish away
Your yesterdays.
Forget the times
You were left behind,
The friends you made
And past mistakes.

It's gone on too long
But you can't find
A way to say no.
And no one's coming for you,
Your family's gone
There's no one here to
Stay always. Despite the pain
The boy you loved
You loved to push away
And the ones around who
Love to hurt you as if
You have to feel the pain

Cause you think you deserve it.
But that boy you hurt is
Waiting to care and say
"It's so good you're back again."

Confide in me
Your hopeless dreams
And wish away
Your yesterdays.
Forget the times
You were left behind,
The friends you made
And past mistakes.

It's so good you're back again.

I Don't Know You

Good morning,
What's my pain today?
Is it all the drugs
I don't
Take your hands off me
I don't feel the way
I did in yesterdays.
I don't know you.

What's the use in my
Mind if it can't think right?
What's the point in my love
If it dies like a heart sick dove?

All I Want Is You To Be Happy

We could walk together for a hundred miles
Walk to the bottom of this isle
Get a ferry across the sea.

You can say 'I love you' or keep it quite
But that won't change whats in my mind
All I want is you to be happy.

I haven't said it for so long
Thought the last time was too wrong
For it to ever be the real thing.
But here I am, far from home
Far from where I've ever known.

Although I'm hurting all over
Crushed my heart and made sure
That I'd cry out my eyes.

I can't help my feelings if they say
"You still love her, anyway."
All I want is you to be happy.

Stuck out my hand to reach out
Got it struck back. With out a doubt
It's all over now.
But the hope is coming back
Since the time you called me back
And we talked 'til the sun rose.

(A, C, G)
[They could say it was all wrong
Falling for a voice in a song.]
But all I want is you to be happy.

Every time I hear those songs
Reminds of the love that's strong
You always open my eyes.

You say you see my colours shining through
"Green, red, ash and black. It's true."
All I was it you to be happy.

I won't run, I stay in sight
I won't abandon the fight
As I said I promised you.
All that's happened I've been here
To stay away the prowling fear
I won't leave you now.

Though I thought I'd lose you out
Now you're all I think about
All I want is you to be happy.

Requiem for a White Rose Pt. 2

Stay alive
You'll only fall through
Your eyes
If you wander in too deep
To look
Around
And miss the exit.

Paint a perfect picture life.
Secrets to believe the lies.
Hold your ears and shut your eyes.
(Get) On your knees and start to pray.
(But nothing could release the light of day.)

(So) keep yourself
Away from the black
And sail
Through rivers of the mind
To find
A way
To rewind time.

Save a knife
You'll need it to reveal
The stains
Under brilliant sheets of light
They peel
Away
To see betrayal.

Paint a perfect picture life.
Secrets to believe the lies.
Hold your ears and shut your eyes.
(Get) On your knees and start to pray.
(But nothing could release the light of day.)

Live or die
The sun will rise and set
Behind
The hills beyond the place
Where you
Came from
And won't go back to.

Watch the waters melt the ice
And run down stony figures grey.
A fire burns you deep inside
Of all the things you didn't say.
(And you suspect you will not see the day.)

Think of who
You're leaving when you lie,
Too
(when) you say you're coming back
Then you spread
Your wings
To fall ten stories.

Vigilant Wolf

Here, I'm always here

Even before you knew

Waiting patiently

Licking my wounds

Nothing is as it was

And will never be

Come, I will protect you

Trust me.

I'll shield you with myself

Every single part

build walls of my love

Locked by my sin

bath you in my darkness

surround you with my light

if they want to get you

they'll have to go through me first

lay your bones on my own

settle your heart on my chest

I don't want to go anywhere

And we both need to rest.

These days are long and getting longer

These battles have me worn

You're tired these days and getting colder

So cast your ice on my warmth

-

I fight on and on

Though this might be my last

Because totally and completely

I want you with me

Three Time's Enough

Well I was young when I first began, I was hardly a man
But I was getting my stride.
I walked like a lion of pride across my savanna, more than a man.
I, see what this? What's that?
A woman in red looking sightly dead
She's just mighty shy
But I knew she go off like dynamite!

BRIDGE:
A friend of a friend told me that you were interested
And I must say that I am, too.
Well I hope you don't mind that I'm singing this song
Cause it's the only way I know how to
Say all these things with out embarrassing you.

Well I'll give a go, I might as well
I got nothing better to do,
But that's not to diminish you
With your short red hair and your big blue eyes
That I could stare in to all day and all night
You're such a beautiful sight.

Well I don't care anymore about the castle of cards
The queen of diamonds is a bitch and I'm sick of her shit.
She's a low down battling beast
A hunk of steel with razor teeth.
But what's this here coming along with a devilish charm?
I think I'm smitten by Hades arm!
And knocked right down off my feet.
It's put me in retreat

BRIDGE:
A friend of a friend told me that you were interested
And I must say that I am, too.
Well I hope you don't mind that I'm singing this song
Cause it's the only way I know how to
Say all these things with out embarrassing you.

We'll I'll give it a go, I might as well
I got nothing better to do
But that's not to diminish you
With your long blond and your green snake eyes
That I could stare in to all day and all night
You've got me mesmerized!

Well I was bitten by her smite by the end of night
Two puncture wounds to show me a fucking fool.
She's the golden idol of hate
A goddess with the power of fate!
But what's this I see at the edge of my vision?
A cataclysm spouting nuclear fission.
A sun brighter than ours, a deadly star of power
With the name called 'Love'.

BRIDGE:
A friend of a friend told me that you were interested
And I must say that I am, too.
Well I hope you don't mind that I'm singing this song
Cause it's the only way I know how to
Say all these things with out embarrassing you.

We'll I'll give it a go, I might as well
I've got nothing better to do
But that's not to diminish you
With your long brown hair and your sandy eyes
That I could stare in to all day and all night
But I think I'm dying!

We'll this one was different, she was the horsemen alive
Famine, war, Plague and Death all rolled in disguise.
It took me a lifetime to forget her name
Her face is the bane of me and still melts my brain.
And just like evil she won't leave me to die.

Princesses

Sleep tight princesses
And play your whispered dreams
Wyverns weep to hear you play
And sing a choral harmony.

Pick up your fiddle and lute
Pick up your lamb drum and dresses
As you dance so beautifully,
Preform so care free.
But the night is drawing on
And the sun casts out his rod
To reel in the moon and the stars,
Guides to the golden streams.

So, sleep tight princesses
And play your whispered dreams
Wyverns weep to hear you play
And sing a choral harmony.
They hark for the golden
Rays that shine in day.
They whimper like worms
And shout "Sing for sun!"
As they know the fisherman's yellow.

Your voices are thunder with butterfly wings
Your tongues are double edged swords.
The fisherman hums to the sound of your songs
And smiles at the light you draw on.
The shadows are dancing as marionettes
To the beats of your lamb skin drum
Spiraling onward and telling of tales
Of tigers eye, onyx and gold.

The Fishmerman's yellow and helping you on
Reeling in those who would love you,
Clapping along to the beautiful fiddle,
Lute and lamb skin drum.
Oh, the music was divine
Of onyx, gold and tigers eye.
Oh, the music was divine
Of onyx, gold and tigers eye.

Sleep tight, princesses
play your whispered dreams
Wyverns weep to hear you play
And sing a choral harmony.
Goodnight, princesses,
Dream of peaceful lives.
For wyverns weep to see you hurt,
Onyx, gold and tigers eye.

The Progression of Heart-Strings

Watching, waiting for the world to stop it's turn.
Hoping, holding on to what has gone before.
I don't, ever want to hear you say again
You won't, ever look at me the same way---!

If I must be alone, prone to hope and dashing stones,
Let me see once more the smiles of all those who left me behind.
Still I'll raise my hands and pray for life.

You, new lover, beauty undisguised.
Smiling, kissing over lips and slender hips.
I won't, ever look at you like I did them.
You can't, ever make me feel the same way!---

Although I guard my heart, keeping pain and glares away
You are who will suffer for it, embraces leaving scabs and sores.
Still I'll raise my swords and bar the doors.

You, who have stayed despite the scars.
I, see, and drop the guise I've kept 'til now.
You won't, ever feel the way you did before.
I will, forever, hold you close and love you on-- and on-- and on!

On-- and on-- and on--!

Banshee

After all, the fight is gone and dead

Anger's wound around my neck

My stomach's ripped wide open,

Bowels used for a poison,

All consuming witch of the lunar disk.

Metamorph to become the snake,
Devouring every face.
Replace those with your own
Torturing the soul
All consuming snake of the solar disk.

After all, the fight is gone and dead

Anger's wound around my neck

My stomach's ripped wide open,

Bowels used for a poison,

All consuming witch of the lunar disk.

Once the love of all my life

For whom I'd sacrifice

Any part that was of need

And you did ask, Banshee.

(Mine was all I had to give

Beyond the grave of life.

Necro, morph in to new flesh

To serve the devils wife.)

Banshee, the absolute and matriarch of ages
Philistine of modern man and whore for hethen sages
Oracale of Olympus, Slut of Babylon,
Apitomy of falsehood crowned by witches while worshiping false Gods!

Becoming Eater, The Black Star

From my death as I rot in the earthen stone,
Soul alive will rise to a stary throne,
Expanding then colapsing to be living dead
Across Plutonian Heaven stead.

Time and Space,
Exeume me from mere planet.
Godly Race,
Have me be a king.
Armoured in a brilliant light
For luring guilty passers by.
Hunger that can never sate
To eat all life and dead alike!

Eater!

With my body make a sun

To eat up every one
"Take our bodies, make us whole
In you, the black star!"

Becoming blacker than the space between the spaces.
Exhuming as I was exhumed.
My name the name of that my life has been exhaulted to.
I am the king of all stars.

"Take our bodies, make us whole
In you the black star."
With my body make a sun
To eat up every one!

Black Star!

Embodiment and Greed

A woman stood still on a cliff in a storm
Watching the swaying where her lover was lorn
"I want her, I must." The sea did exclaim.
"I need what this woman carries in her veins."
Lightning broke sharp as the wind laughed away
"This child of the land will die in loves way."
She was flung from the peak to the black, cashing waves
"Devour and drown her." The wind did exclaim.
The ghosts of the past chanted in reverie
"Drag her down deeper than you did with we.
Make her one with the bottom of the sea."
So she did sink but remained with the living.

"Howl, dead, soused wolves.
Lament for her life.
Gather together a pack.
Steed her quickly to me.
Bare your teeth to her wrists.
Flow the blood out free.
Devour her not, let decay.
Make her one with the sea."

Her flesh soon swept away with deep tides.
Bones bleached white in the churning of time.
"I want her, forever. I will never let go.
The blue of her blood, in me now it does flow."
The creatures in it surely twisted in rot.
The oceans all swallowed the land in their sot.
The wind did exclaim "We conquer the beasts!
Back to the sea with them. All will be not!"
Black clouds and lightning, the might of the sky.
Black waves and thunder, the terrible sea.
"With her sorrow forlorn we ravish the earth.
With her curse now our own we contend with no mirth"

Cackle, hyenas of silt.
Gnaw on her bones to the hilt.
Bring her soul back to life.
Make her a chariot of fire.
That which pains her, pains all.
Queen of the victorious fall.
"He died by the fates set path.
The fates will now feel my wrath."

Revenant

Not peaceful was my sleep,
Nightmares became my dreams.
Breaking my nails as I crawled
Up the wet well wall
Just to slip on the slimy stones
And slide back down to the cold.
But rain hit my face
And waters raised me as they flowed.

On the surface I see mansions
With halls of ivory,
Porcelain thrones
And chandeliers of ruby.
But here I turn my back
On these prisons given to me
For none could ever compare
To her beauty.

I watched as she took up
The sea.
As the land was dredged for mist and fog
To seize.
But my winds cleared the shroud away.
So I could see her heart in pain.
And know that she wanted to feel,
To know that love was real.

I always thought I'd fight
And battle to my end
Pushed onward by fear
That she might know what I meant.
But now I think it better
To cast down the weapons of war
Wave my white flag, Surrender
And become much more

If I make haste
I'll find my soul, to save.

Viscus

Dust me over
With a shoulder of your best.
I'm ever so weary
And I need a drink to rest.
But a double, if you please,
You see I don't feel like going home.

I'm sorry,
I don't mean to complain
But, darling, I'm afraid
I'm making this drink bitter.
My heart is sore and lonely
And, darling, if you'd only
Blow a kiss
And do whatever you asked.

Through the haze
I see you smile
The roses bloom
Just to bare witness
The sun shines.
Just for you
Making your hair
Breathless
(In beauty)

It's all true.
It's all you.

But now
Look what I've done
I'm afraid my mouth has run.
I think it's time
I slept it off
Before I trip over my tongue
And fall in love.

They Call Me Wolfskin

She was a cool cat
The leader of her pack
Saying everything so right
Convincing with those tundra eyes

"All the better to see you with
My dear."

She was catastrophy alive
Embodied in a body sumblime
Listening to every word
Searching for a critising curse
With pierced tribal ears
That knew when you were near

"All the better to hear you with
My dear."

She laughed like a hyena in heat
Infectious like a plague that starts down in deep
With poisen nails that clawed at my skin
Leaving me bloody but wanting again.
And when she smiled
I worryingly
Saw in her mouth
Sharp diamond teeth

"All the better to eat you with
My dear."

She was a wolf!

She bit me and we made love 'til the morning came
She tore off my skin and ripped out my shame
She saw me as a lamb to kill
But I gave her a big suprise!

A knife made of my bones and claws
Slicing her asunder from her talons to her maw

She made me a beast with my man flesh deciest.
I feel a release as her death sets me free.

I took her hide and made it my own
To wear over my new flesh and bones.

Now they call me Wolfskin.

I'm right behind you

Looking higher at those sentry clouds
That still are keeping the sun at bay
I can't bring myself to close my eyes
Incase I too slip to that grave.
We could have talked to the morning
We could have drove til the dawn
You could have said a thousand times
"You are my friend" but life goes on.
How many years has it been now
Since we first said "Hello"?
It's funny how it all went so quickly
And this is all going so slow.
But don't look so serious, my friend
We all have to die one day.
Today may be yours
But mine's on it's way.
And when tonight comes
And you're sleeping peacefuly
I'll be wide awake
And crying out history.

The cat climbs where the wolf can't reach

By the river on a bench
Is where it had to end
As the cigarette burnt away.
She said "It wasn't you but I
And it wasn't a lie
But I might just hurt you one day."

Diamonds from her eyes
Fell to the stone but where no prize
And in them I felt no victory.
The only trophy was her thanks
After I helped her through the banks
Of hurt. But I was suffering.

And it hit me 'like a freight train'
Is what they say,
Paralyzing pain
In every way.
But I've had my moments peace
In the silence in between
Realities. So I hope I'll be ok.

Fading down to
That river bottom
Wading around
The bloody coffin
Rising up
To breath
Climbing ashore
To leave.

Fureur du sort Malheureux

A shining star cometh
Leaving behind smoke
That suffocates not
In the vacuum of space.
It is a son of a Father God
Who has spite for me
As I have seen His face
And was not struck down.
"Fall my son, whose name is as mine,
And crush the fool so I may exhume him
So to scatter what I have left of him..."


A fist full of led smashed down as a holy bomb
Sent from our Lords right hand
Carved in the earth a name of Beelzebub
Scorching those who saw it fall.
He cursed me with a serpent tongue
So none would ever believe.
My brothers, the angels,
Chained me under the sea
Everything I had died away
And was crushed in their gnashing teeth.
So I opened the sky with my spite when released
And spat in the face of their Gold heathen God.

Ba'al Zebub!
Lord of the flies!
Eating my eyes!
Eating my eyes!

War will silence the God.

I rose up, unwilling to go down in a whisper
And took in a breath to release out the anger
But He whom devours the corpses of demons
Spat out acid on my tongue.
War has silenced the thoughts I did have
And replaced them with offspring, it's maggots.
They chew 'til they spew out my mouth and reprise
I vomit my sin but don't die.

He soon devours me slow!
Ba'al Zebub!

Spat on my tongue so I couldn't speak!
Eating my eyes! Eating my eyes!
We will soon die! Under His might!
Heathens had me crucified.
