Song | The Promise |
Artist | Akercocke |
Album | Antichrist |
Draw near - partake of this altar | |
For you are fairer in beauty | |
Than other daughters of man | |
Recognise and embrace | |
This glorious proclamation | |
Of eternal damnation | |
Place all your faith in sex and death | |
Rather than the wisdom of the divine | |
Have no pity for those | |
Mired in the prophet delusion | |
Content to be servile for a lifetime | |
Tis better to be king for a day | |
Your passing will leave | |
Scant trace in history | |
Wiped from memory | |
Like forgotten dream | |
Like sand slipping through fingers... |
