Abducting the Seed Lyrics


(Chorus): Born of the light and the earth, pure succulent flesh, white limbs of desire, unsuspecting and gay!

Beware the temptation that groweth from the earth below thine feet.

For he is coming and his hunger is ravenous, his cunning great and his desire unshackled.

Dare not wander alone...

(Chorus): As the unsuspecting maiden reaches for a narcissus, the Lord below appears on a gilded chariot drawn by four horses.

Each helpless to his rabid command, each beholden to his sinister desire.

(Hades): Silence! Oh beautiful daughter of the earth! Fragrant seed of the lord beyond the sun!

Behold my might and my desire, abducting the seed!

All shall I bestow unto thee and naught shall be denied!

(Chorus): Herself, helpless to his rabid command. Herself, beholden to his sinister desire.

(Hades): My hands are the shrines of desolation, my breath reeks of ancient foul flesh.

Souls devoured by my ruinous splendor, none shall be dissuaded!

My hands are the shrines of desolation, my breath reeks of ancient foul flesh.

Souls devoured by my ruinous splendor, abducting the Seed!
