Album:

The Dreadful Hours

The chosen one glows like the sun 
Pure of heart, wide in eye 
Sweet she sings, sings her hymns 
Golden girl dances by 


He is filth. Scum of God 
Black as night. Mute and sick 
Sent by the Lord. The boy his sword 
To reap the gold. To use the stick 


He watches her from his side in the blood 
Waiting for the holy call for her blood 
Every moon she comes close to her Lord 


Sick with suffering. The stench and filth of him 
Death all around him. The flies, the dogs, the din 


King of death and pain. Ruler of the slain 
All in Gods name. Creatures for the maim 


I'll come for you soon for my God is my want 
Your eyes. Your face. An angel for the world to see 
My God is my want 


Sickle in hand. Over her I stand 
Fear and love. Red and tears I see 
My God is my want. My God is my want 
My God is my want. My fucking God is my want 


There he lay for his God. A final time 
The silent one. Fallen son. A final night
