HIDEOUS DIVINITY – Mysterium Tremendum Lyrics

Wake! Burn! Rise!
The power it holds
It’s been so long
Since the touch of Wrath

The Flame, my dream,
It burns my skin
Why can’t I stop smiling?
Awareness of shadow and light
Disgrace, knowledge
Obscene domain
Vanity in pain
Behold what’s not for us!

Wake! Arise! Burn!
Leave my body behind
Wake, Burn, rise

How could you tear us apart and scatter our mortal love?
You crave it just to destroy and profane

Who has sewn my mouth?
Who made the quasi-sentient?
Play the dead instrument
Bestiary of impossible, sing to me!
I am the elegy sung
In horrified silence
By a dead world

Ecstatic rapture, now I see
Ecstatic rapture, I feed!
How could you tear us apart and scatter our mortal love?
You crave it just to destroy and profane
I am the Agent
The Elegy sung by the unborn
Ligature reached
For the World beneath

Leave my body behind,
Wake! Burn! the unextinct rises,
The unextinct feasts!

Mysterium Tremendum – Mysterium!
Eye of the Hunter, while I burn, I’m one with the flame!
Mysterium Tremendum – Mysterium!

The cross that I served is no more!
The rotten tooth bit on dirty flesh
Spreading disease and plague.
The agony sprouted in the footprints
Of incubi and succubae
Who wander this world!
