Order Of The Blackguard - Church Of The Shrike
текст песни

The church of the shrike
Black is the colour - None is the number
Order of the Black Guard
Dedicated to Dan Simmons and his stunning "Hyperion cantos" www.dansimmons.com

Oh with joy i am butchered and sliced
Stare upon me with your eyes of pitch black
Blindness numbs my burning orbs
Your embrace my crown of thorns

[Chorus1]:
I pray my sins will feed your hunger
Your kiss tastes not unlike smashed glass
May your caring knife my reality
I crave to be torn and lacerated

...lacerated
...torn and lacerated

[Chorus2]:
"The doors are now open....
and forever shall remain so...
Praise the lord, the chosen one...
hail the darkness...king of pain"

Oh with tears of blood i weep
Your promise of blades will not let me down
I can only hope these wounds will never heal
As my light swirls down the blackest of drains

[Chorus1]

...lacerated (2x)

[Chorus2]

SHRIKE!
Dying over,
again and again
Dying over,
[Chorus3]:
again and again
....In the church of the strike.
again and again
....In the church of the strike.
again and again
....In the church of the strike.
....In the church of the strike.

... Dying over,
again and again
[Chorus3]

I am yours..To forever Bleed
. Within thy ebony walls of torment
Draining away in ecstacy.
. Kneeling at the altar of razor blades

[Chorus1]
[Chorus2]
