Cradle of Filth "Carrion" Songtext

Carrion

Lurking in the shadeOf dark and fragrant treesShirking from the rageThat tore the heavens freeA vagrant AngelHis with span to seeThe garden swell with terrorsTo banish man and Eve

Another fall from graceWhiplashed from the gatesHalf-naked and insaneFull-blooded, breastedNerve ends testedTo behests of pain

A sombre lot to gain

A storm slid inBorne by carnal windsThe upper ether thinnedAnd therein sat abominations

Satan seated thereSavouring the reek of desolationTheir dank despairMoved His speech to leech the air

"Behold the golden doorTo paradise is lostSo praise Me as you raised your LordAnd I shall thaw this gnawing frost"

Another fall from graceWhiplashed from the gatesHalf-naked and insaneAnd destined for a spiteful FateWherein evil sought the shamedAs pawns in greater stakesAcross this cosmic gameTo win the handOf darkness andSet Her in her rightful place

"Cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow thou shalt eat of it all the days of thy life; Thorns also and thistles shall bring it forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field; In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it was thou taken: for dust thou art and unto dust shalt thou return."[Genesis 3:17-19]

At the throat of the human raceWith claws engorged and poised to rakeWith that the pact was sealedAnd as creation reeledBewitched oration filledThe hearts of allWho came to crawlUpon these earthen fields

A sombre lot to till

A wracked black acid songSpat from the massive throngOf Seraph knelt alongThe deep red welt to domination

The deep red welt to domination
