Tearing The Veil From Grace Lyrics - Midian - Cradle Of Filth

Biblical choirs soar beyond veiled light 

A swansong for ravens trapped flapping in night 

A tragic yet magickal fall from grace 

Too awful to taste for the led and the chaste 

Those whose long fetters are addressed to all saints 

Free shining souls torn from Giod's given Reich 

Defiled, reviled, exiled from sight 

And Hell knows we sought victory 

Chancing the leash 

But when bad die were cast 

We were cast down to die 

A steeple of needles thrust into our eyes 

So scholars might say we were blinded by pride 

Like the sin of Our Father (and the whims of our kind) 

Whom in Isaiah and Midian thrived 

Regaining His sights for the storming of skies

And after descenturies have crawled, vilified 

Our dark harkened day on spread wing now arrives 

For eternity is a coprophagic 

Backward figure head 

Gorging on Her own bitter end 

And We have eaten shit 

Until we're close to addicts 

Now grime is running out 

For us to make amends 

To retake what once was lost 

To exalt our throne above the stars of God 

"To throw our fuck into gates and guts 

Of a severed neverland 

Where we, the damned 

Once pleasured ran 

Like seamen from the phallus sea" 

Photos 

Atrocious oceans must be crossed 

To exalt our throne above the stars of God 

The thirteenth sign of the Zodiac climbs 

Cowled and scythed to snuff the sunrise 

Throwing shades of war before like prophecy 

Nightbreed freed from the vasty deep 

Nasty reap of freaks forsaken 

And when sultry Dusk disrobes they'll learn 

She is not a natural blonde 

For the lower She goes the darker it grows 

An Eve that blows on Her knees for Satan 

Fellated Satan 

Screams congeal in clotted pearl 

As He unfurls from aching hibernation 

Stormbringer drums thunder to full Dis orchestra 

As lighting streaks with fire 

Black clouds that shroud the Earth 

Whose cold breasts have held us in scar pillories 

But now the Sun is loath to come 

The crescent moon is freed 

Elated Satan 

The scimitar slash to the undergash 

Of Heaven too slight for penetration 

We strike as wolves from the thickening fog 

To exalt our throne ove the stars of God 

Lowly holy goats bare the brunt 

Of rabid dogmas on a stellar bearhunt 

Bastioned in citadels and monastic cells 

That smell of blessed cunt 

Like a convent where crosses rust 

From thirty dirty habits of shaved nun 

There where deeper needs are begged of lust 

And cess and less impress enough 

Obtaining the ord of Our Gaurdian, Anger 

And Death's tunnel vision 

Bad thing in collision 

The locking of eyes and jagged antler 

Unpicking the seams of fate sewn over dreams 

Feasting from throats of celestial thieves 

And God knows we seek victory 

Now that we are unleashed 

To drive nails home of blind faith through those 

Who drove us from error to terror below 

Refugees clung to a crown furred in flies 

Tarred with red honey, the plaster 

Of many a spire that aspired to rise 

Seeking Messiahs that by us soon die 

In the start like a cast 

In morality plays 

Our hearts wore a mask 

Of dead rooks in the rain 

The World was our cloister 

No prayer, bent in shame 

Our once lucent plumage 

Stung with horn withered grey 

And away 

As Aeons slew so we grew to myth 

Revenge accrued to a monolith 

Bursting through from our roofed abyss 

Like an aether greased fist 

Now vulvite gates are so sorely missed 

Our horror pours through the orifice 

Where once the spheres and archangels kissed 

Phallelujah! 

Fellated Satan 

His coming assails 

The Night In Gales 

That bewail turned tides 

That engulf their nation 

Now divintity is a worm ridden mouth 

In a darkened high house 

Overrun by disease 

So let the truth be wrung 

That the Banished Ones intent 

On reinstatement have won 

We breathe by virtue of their rot 

Now our souls exult above the stars of God
