lyrics

"Violence as Aphrodisiac"

When weaving the tapestry
While tending the fields of creation
The doorway is not an abode
Seek not to nest in poison
The sting of flesh robust
The pathways 'ever entangle
The spell of illusion - a web
To twist the mind impure

Traipsing through the corpses
By means of fiends
And thresher steads
The harvesting engorges
A cornucopia of entrails
With prophecies a looming
A fortune teller's telling
A prophet's profit grooming
Aesthetic ascetics in blooming
A silent instituting
Regards from the ancient abyss

A salutation of salivation
A salutation of salivation
A salutation of saliva-"..."
A salutation of salivation
A salutation of salivation
A salutation of...

Tethered to oblivion
With teeth that gleam
Of cheap chagrin
The tearing tears
And weeping woes
That gnaw the maw
Of beggars' foes

Rescind the vagabond
The meaning of the dreaming
Seems to be vision quest
Relaying a slated tomb of doom

The violence - it beckons
The violence - it reckons
The violence - enlivens
The violence as aphrodisiac!

Free the glee
With a killing spree
Heed the deed
Of misanthropy
Feed the greed
For debauchery
Seed the need
To sow the stifling weeds

There are tongues
In these trees
With severed limbs
Discarded
Becoming smoldering ashes
An etheric consciousness
Haunted
Grappling with clutches
Of madness
Writhing without any
Vastness
Procurement of lechery
The raving paving the way

A culpable anthology
A miscreant of misery
A corrugated lunacy
Corruptible idolatry
A novice shuffling in the lurch
Astutely sitting on a perch
To mockingly besmirch the mirth
Of the innocuous naive

Once upon a battle ground
The eyes are drooping
Like a hound
Obnoxious rumbling in the air
A motive with a dire stare
To seek the hand that
Feeds the crown
And frown because
The crow is drown
A shell of winsome bold attack
Violence as aphrodisiac!
