Of Mist & Midnight Skies Lyrics

We, the nocturnal few
Bound by other laws
To the service of the enemies of god
Are silent and hidden
Yet our exquisite fire burns on
Poised to engulf

Tie a man to his god
He may not walk for fear
Of falling foul to temptation
Where once faith stood her ground

Renounce the guilt, ignite the flame
Cast the fetid virgin back from where she came
Drink deep of the promise in my eyes
Of mist and midnight skies

I drown in fathomless dreams
And in the reeking mire of virtue scream
I yearn to sell my very soul

And you for none so dark and sinister
Will arise to embrace the arts
Do what thou will
Until the stones in my heart stand still
Regardless of the cost to your repugnant god

The last may frost may blight the crops
And will never be ascribed to be heavenly dog
Or nature but infernal tasks

By your cursings and imprecations
You wrong, both man and beast
By whatever whim you serve
Of the devil your liege

Tie belief to the trinity and seven ways
Will be wrought to condemn thee
Conspiring to cull the pagan ways

Twist back their lies, personify their needs
The war begins by satanic decree
If evil we be, we will our lives
To mist and midnight skiesCradle Of Filth - Of Mist & Midnight Skies - http://motolyrics.com/cradle-of-filth/of-mist-and-midnight-skies-lyrics.html

I will avenge the deaths
Of a thousand burning children

Be bound to a covenant
With us in our hellish league
And bring the host of the Nazarene
To their knees

Breath the life of an entity never born
Darkness now descend in raven form

The words, the burning rasp
Vibrate the cosmic thread
Arcturus is risen queen
Hold forth the severed head to me

I pour my lovelorn kisses at your feet
Raper of all my worldly enemies

Lycanthropy, please poison me
Send a causal instincts
Crawling through my brain
Take me, mistress
Until perversion is fed

Dark magic pleasures weaved
Under the jeweled moon-head

The cross-stick will fade
When the usurper hangs
For now we congregate
Where once my angel sang

That night they came
And took her away from me
I lost the woman I loved
And I learned how to curse
And to spit in the face of their
Jesus fucking god

We will ride again
We will ride again
In the midnight skies
