Heaven Torn Asunder Lyrics by Cradle Of Filth

Heaven Torn Asunder Lyrics

    Rise, ablaze, libidinous
    Devildom voyeurs
    Ascend to smother the light
    Nascent aeons confer...

    Chaos is spat
    From the black eternal sea
    Serrated mountains of mad shadows
    Carving towards misdeed

    Stormchoirs gather
    A pestilential hiss
    Sunset evokes Luciferian fire
    The skies are ruptured like a knifed orifice
    Supernal vestments hang tattered
    Cathedrals shriek to pulpit oratory
    Invasions scale Babel's ivory towers
    Poised to sodomise a world upon it's knees

    Victory spent
    Breathe deep benighted scent

    We are as a flame born unto the darkness
    Desires burning in palatial glades
    And virtues once aloof, now worming beneath us
    Shalt see their children, pleasuring as slaves...

    Attack!

    Wreak atrocities on those we have despised
    Judgements be riven, from the skies
    Darkness empower let us master prophecy
    Fulfilling destiny - the promised fever
    Bedizens eyes paralysed with blasphemy
    Written in flesh across the howling ether

    Artemis spread the bliss of this Lupercalia

    With stars erased, throw wide the gates
    The infidel soon unmasks her face
    Neath silken shroud she waxes horn
    Sharpened to skewer dawn...

    I am as a plague, born to the priestess
    The secret amour of her archangelic rape
    Jaded-eyed when my lovers, possessed
    Screamed out their agonies, upon the stake

    Wreak atrocities on those we have despised
    Judgements be riven, from the skies
    Darkness empower let us master prophecy
    Fulfilling destiny - the promised fever
    Bedizens eyes paralysed with blasphemy
    Written in flesh across the howling ether

    "The most August sorcerers of Hades
    Darkly seized for me a throne
    And the upraised scythe so terribly scribed
    Vengeance in Jesuit blood on stone
    From this ransacked celestial temple
    I hold the prophet's severed head unto all nations"

    Tremble before us
    Lords of the star-veiled red sepulchres
    Rushing deathwards, our Tartarean fires
    Kindle pandemonia to furnace the earth

    "Our voices are opened graves
    Through which the never-dead escape"

    From dank, abyssic dream
    Pursuing ascendancy...

    The enemy has held three seasons
    I'mparadised, whilst we writhed
    To psycho-dramas penned by aerial decree
    Now freed to plunder...
    Heaven torn asunder.
