Haruspex: The Final Prophecies Lyrics


HARUSPEX: THE FINAL PROPHECIES

The Abbess of Abjection

Spoken Intro

"On the hot stone of Aztec's martyrs

The mage's hand moves inside his victim's darkness

Parting the mouth of pain to its final statement

The thick web of entrails fingered like a rosary

Holy trinity of guts, blood & groaning

As the dying one writhes on his firey pallet

The judgment is spoken"

Marasmus of the planet

Seer's unholy verdict

Space & time is wasted

To a splinter of our purpose

Earth usurped by hunger

The Last Supper's vengeance

Dangling its cadavers

Endless mobile's sufferance

Babylon & Nineveh

Worlds reclaimed by fire

Lemnisc of brutality

Binding gifts of horror

Licking from the mountaintop

Flame's sharp banners flash

Neon in the mind of death

Clad with pelt's dark ash

Noah's haptic passage

Through his ark's infested waters

The swollen land engorging

Christ's insensate soldiers

Banks & dykes eroding

Torn by time's rank flood

Oceans choke the masses

With salt-redeeming blood
