Part 1: The Priest

Condemned by thee

My house of faith

For acts of a hedonist fiend

Mine sins proclaimed

Smother me in shame as the

Hinges of hypocrisy did scream...

As the hinges of hypocrisy did scream

Thereafter destined

To dwell in the shadows

Banished from the light of day}

Thus revealed

This irony of faith

Cold and destined to decay

Cold and destined to decay...

Part II: The Priestess

Look to the shadows

My dear

Thy kin, thy future lay here

Come feast with us, with lust

Remain forever near

Come to mine bosom, mine hearth

Dark winds have cleared thy path

Autumn, she bids you de robe

Shed this skin that you loathe

Liberty... from chastity

We give to thee

Oh Sultry embrace of heresy

Liberty... from chastity

We give to thee

Oh Sultry embrace of heresy

Part III: The Incubus

Midst the light of 13 candles

A funeral of innocence

See me now as I behold thee

Henceforth abandon thy chains

Paradise beacons thee on this night

Thy flesh, thy soul, surrender

Untold pleasures await thee here

To fill thy veins with sin

We bid thee heresy

Befriend

We bid thee heresy

Befriend...

Blood and shadows

Did bequeath thee

Pleasures so vast

Now let us feast...
