Obsidian Spires Lyrics


Behold a towering cathedral sculpted from seraphs' wings

Obsidian spires of twisted flesh mock the weeping heavens

Hymns from the exalted throats of the damned cry out

MERCY

Depictions of piety on glass stained with blood

The stench of rot spreads plague of scripture

Coiling tendrils beckon to the weak

Hymns from the exalted throats of the damned cry out

MERCY

Verses whispered in vain are met with a deafening silence

Charred remnants of lost faith are cast to the four winds

Fall to their knees

Sinking deeper still, beneath the surface of the earth

Only to be reborn in eternal torment

Condemnation complete

They will devour his holy flesh and drain him of his life's blood

Consuming the light until nothing but darkness remains

Hymns from the exalted throats of the damned cry out

Mercy

MERCY

Feet washed in tepid piss

Head anointed with burning oils

Baptism in excreta

A sacrament of death
