Torn apart
Hungry for blood
Unfurling wings to the light
Bolder than lust
Colder than rime
Shaped in the mud
Of this barrow of grime
In this barrow of grime
Older than time
His doubt is fleeting
Perfectly still
Impassive visage
Imperious will
His mind is a curse
Emboldened by terrible times
But what's left to refine
But what's left to refine
Older than time
Tell me what do
You cannot see me I
Tell me what
I am I must
I cannot know not see
Do you see
Arriving
Blackened
Heaven
Dying
Emerge
I'm wicked north
Ruiner of birth
Fuck the earth
I am wicked north
Emerge
Tell me what do you see
I must know I can't see
Tell me
I must know
What you see
Purveyor of all grief and pain and misery
I must know
What you see
Dancing to the final battle

An Unkindness

Fall
Into a nest of chains
Fall
Eat of this flesh
Drink of the power
Hover the feeding
Follow in wake of the crone
In blood there is power
The wind is the meaning
Unkindly we roam
Fall x2
The beaks and the talons
Are snapping and clacking
The kindness of ravens
Is not what is lacking
Fall x4
Hunger for magics
The favored believe
Follow the feathers
Sweeping from heaven
On they call
A merciful feeding
For powerful children we fall
Call for mercy
Call
Thine eyes nailed to the skies
Hopeful with lies
Pain is a vision
Salvation circling high
Wing to me children
Come get your fill
They have him in chains
Have him in chains
It's called the rhythm of life
The best parts are the eyes
Wing to me children
Strong is the heart
It beats for him still
Beats for him still
Like a thunderous drum
Unending cadence become

If Not Now

Time is a beating
We won't survive
Assaults repeating forever
One by one
The names deprived
Choose the final word
I can't see your face at night
Burn my hands forever
The rope is slipping
Faster faster
Out of sight
Pray for resolution
The faces fleeing
Backward backward
Back in time
Blue
There's nothing more to say
Not now anyway
The moments filled with grief
Surrender not for me
Pain will find a way
To teach us how to pray
I carry your loss
Into the blink of an
I carry your loss
If not now forever
There's nothing left to tell you
There's nothing more to say
Time has left me silent
With everything to say

A clever ending
Forbidding we the sound relenting
An old religion
The face of Mary cracked and broken
Tongues are spoken
We'll never make it back
We only know what's real
Look in the breaking glass
We behold the reveal
All we know is time
Broken upon the wheel
Shards of broken glass
Blinding the ordeal
The caretaker sees me
Embrace the awful sight unending
You be the judge
Bless the beloved
Horns stick above
Halos bending, Halos bending
Recite the pentacostal lie
Servants will never take the blame
Soaked in the blood we'll never die
Destroy your mind and feel no pain
We'll never make it back
We only know what's real
Look in the breaking glass
We behold the reveal
All we know is time
Broken upon the wheel
Shards of broken glass
Blinding the ordeal
For real
Lamentations, fill the glasses
A river for the queen
You make widows of disciples
Of lovers, none will speak
Speak the pain
Accusing me
Now is never
Now forever
All the angels
Pity me
Now forever
Now is never
